I cannot tell for sure about the overall amount of bugs in Launchpad, but
in my own 25 years of software development i dont see how generally
requesting dmesg for each and every bug report would have been necessary or
helpful.

For my concrete situation and launchpad reports, i can tell that at the
same time i havent even got any answer for any bug i reported about
thunderbird so far… so its not even looked at by maintainers but available
to the whole world. (No complain, theres sure enough to do besides caring
for a single users rare issues! Only an observation from my perspective)

But yeah, there might be insights that i am lacking that make it a good
fit.

Im not going to insist in changes if you see it as  necessary the way it
is. I know what to do to work around  it now.

Thanks :)

2021-08-10 Thread Seth Arnold
dmesg in bug reports is fantastically helpful: it is a very fast and
reliable way to diagnose many classes of hardware problems or filesystem
flaws or kernel module incompatibilities that show up to the user as
bugs in their programs. Having it available has saved both developers
and users a *lot* of time.

Thanks
