Could such unwrapped sentences and gdb backtraces just be separted by ignoring lines starting with '#' ? Kind regards, Bernhard

reassign 912223 debbugs retitle 912223 make auto-wrap heuristic smarter (see #912215) thanks On Mon, 29 Oct 2018, Peter Palfrader wrote: > debbugs tries to wrap messages such as > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=912215#10 > in its web interface. > > This makes the message entirely unreadable. Heh; that one shouldn't be wrapped. We need something to do wrapping because people send messages which aren't wrapped either, so I'm going to try to tweak this to not fire on messages which look rectangular and still follow the 80 column wide convention. -- Don Armstrong https://www.donarmstrong.com Logs drowse in the pond Dreaming of their heroes Alligator and crocodile -- Vern Rutsala "Poetry in Motion" p77
Bug#912223: auto-wrapping in the web interface Bad
Package: bugs.debian.org Severity: normal Hi! debbugs tries to wrap messages such as https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=912215#10 in its web interface. This makes the message entirely unreadable. This might be due to https://salsa.debian.org/debbugs-team/debbugs/commit/8e7c683909967245600226f5863ba95c9318ec4d Please reconsider this auto-wrap thing. Cheers, -- | .''`. ** Debian ** Peter Palfrader | : :' : The universal https://www.palfrader.org/ | `. `' Operating System | `-https://www.debian.org/
