[Bug 1048776] [NEW] Page on launchpad website regarding bug reporting is a mile long, largely irrelevant for LTS console users, and impossible for newbs to use
Public bug reported: If you are an intermediate linux user who is fairly new to Ubuntu and has chosen an LTS distro (no GUI), when you notice something wrong, it is pretty damn near impossible to report a bug. There is one tiny link about 7 pages down on the Reporting Bugs page which is the right place to go, and half of the information before you get to it is completely irrelevant to you if you are an LTS user, so the chances are high that you'll not even bother to read the whole page and find the one tiny damn link in the entire page which takes you to where you need to be. The webpage in question is: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1048776 Title: Page on launchpad website regarding bug reporting is a mile long, largely irrelevant for LTS console users, and impossible for newbs to use To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1048776/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
