Thank you for the summary of the state-of-play. A couple random
thoughts, if I may:
1. It is good to see acknowledgement that some of us have flaky
internet connections. I was worried that I might be entirely
locked out of bibisecting.
2. Here are some bug counts to shed some (but not much!) light on the
value of bibisect coverage. Selection criteria are on the
Whiteboard field, using a regular expression where you see a
wildcard. "Open" means resolution = "---"; non-open is just a
calculated difference.
selection all open non-open
-------------------- ----- ---- --------
bibisected or 249 74 175 (70%)
prebibisect
prebibisect or 92 29 63 (68%)
bibisected.*older
bibisected and not 153 43 110 (62%)
( prebibisect or
bibisected.*older or
bibisected.*newer )
bibisected.*newer 4 0 4 (100%)
3. As coverage extends at both ends, we will have more cases of
not-commonly-satisfied requirements for system libraries. Wiki
page "How to bibisect" already mentions a jpeg library, and I have
had problems with glibc. I have no idea what we can do except
wait until the problem becomes significant. Hopefully, that will
never happen.
Thank you for letting me run on.
Terry.
