[Libreoffice-qa] Dealing with Corrupt Profiles

2015-10-11 Thread Joel Madero
Hi All,

I wanted to know people's thoughts about dealing with bugs that we know
are caused by corrupt profiles. My suggestion:

NEW

with "corruptProfile" in the whiteboard. This is different from how it's
currently done as we close these as WFM. I'm happy to continue but if we
are trying to locate profile corruption, I think this would help quite a
bit.


Just thinking out loud.


Best,
Joel

I think adding a "corruptProfile" tag in the whiteboard would be good.
but I'd leave the WFM status instead of NEW

as far as I know most of those profile corruption are unpredictable and 
never reproducible from scratch... and I've never seen a user with a 
corruptProfile WFM bug telling that it happened again after resetting


moreover there's no automated tool yet to analyze profile folders (I'm 
thinking about a bibisect-like thing) so I think that developers should 
concentrate on reproducible bugs that affects multiple users rather than 
focus on random bugs that affected one user only once in a time

[Libreoffice-qa] query Bugzilla for bugs with many duplicates

2015-10-11 Thread Tommy

Hi there,
is there any way we can obtain a Bugzilla query showing a list with the 
bugs with the highest duplicates number?


an example is:
Bug 40534 - slide tearing in LARGE screens with hardware acceleration 
enabled   (11 dupes)

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40534

I think knowing the list of the most duplicated bug reports would help 
QA members to identify more duplicates once they are reported.


is this achievable?
