Hi all, In the past week I was working on (1) the proxy daemon for fetching bug report from Debian BTS and (2) the integration of reportbug.
1. The proxy daemon had been implemented before, but I just let it run when the OS starts. I discussed this implementation with my mentor last week and we realized that users may not want to have too many daemons that are always running. We decided to start the proxy when necessary, i.e., when Apport needs to talk to Debian BTS we start the proxy and terminate it afterwards. 2. In addition to fetching and displaying existing bug reports, we would like to give users one more option to report their bugs -- by integrating reportbug into Apport. I started using python-reportbug library [1] to achieve this. I found python-reportbug not compatible with Apport either so we have to leverage the proxy to communicate with Debian BTS. I also blogged about some new features of Debian Apport [2]. [1] https://packages.debian.org/sid/python-reportbug [2] http://blog.yurushao.info/2015/07/Debian-Apport-GSoC/ -- Thanks, Yuru
