Shouldn't these bugs be upgraded to important or so as usertags
became a really useful tool these days, particularly for QA work?

reportbug and usertags

2007-11-13 Thread Neil Williams
I may simply be doing this wrong, but how do I set usertags within reportbug?

I'm trying this:
http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/emdebian/man/re03.html#meld

Where reportbug adds:
Tag: patch

I follow on with:
User: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Usertags: crossbuilt

This doesn't work and I have to set the usertags later:
$ bts user [EMAIL PROTECTED] , usertag NUMBER + crossbuilt

What am I missing?

Can you tell me an example bug number that you've done this with?

Setting usertags like that is supposed to work, but it's possible
that there is a bug somewhere that isn't obvious.

Take a look at the next one (I haven't run 'bts' on this one yet):
This is what I received back:

In line with the other cross-building support bugs:

Yet the reportbug log shows:

The above is the pseudoheader the BTS received; if you (or reportbug)
had sent the pseudoheader below to the BTS, it should have worked.

 Package: diffutils

Sounds like a bug in reportbug to me; it's probably stripping out
unknown pseudoheaders.

Indeed; see #418677 and #445144, both currently filed at wishlist
