Done. There are no open tickets with trivial severity anymore, and you
cannot set that severity value anymore.

Cheers,

Killing the Severity field value trivial in Bugzilla

2015-02-04 Thread Andre Klapper
tl;dr Might happen soon.


While/after upgrading to Bugzilla 4.4 soon(TM) [1], I would like to get
rid of Bugzilla's trivial Severity field value in order to get a
slightly shorter list of confusing choices.

That means it will not be possible anymore to set that Severity value on
a bug report, and I would bump the Severity value //only for those 492
open reports// from trivial to minor (while ignoring closed ones).

IMHO, trivial should be expressed by setting the gnome-love keyword.
Plus trivial is simply not a severity: A critical crasher bug can be
trivial to fix when it's just a typo in a function call.

And so this might just happen if noone speaks up to protest.

(PS: Bikesheds about severity vs priority vs importance vs complexity go
to your new separate thread. I prefer my stuff to be actionable chunks.)
