Thomas, You've just validated my original assertion when filing this bug: "reporting an ubuntu bug is not a task which can be reasonably accomplished without the direct assistance of an Ubuntu/Debian developer, or at least a software engineer".
If this was your goal, then congratulations, you're successful. Although it might be nicer to the user just to tell them "please don't bother trying to report bugs", so that they don't waste their time. Last I checked, though, the entire purpose of Ubuntu as a distro was to be "Linux for everybody". Did that goal change sometime in the last year, when I wasn't looking? (BTW, I'm not claiming some kind of virtue here; the PostgreSQL project is *terrible* about accessibility to new users. But that also means I'm familiar enough with the "newbie-hostile" syndrome to recognize it when I see it.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212356 Title: Ubuntu Bug Filing is not user-friendly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1212356/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
