yet you wont receive any updates and instead you spam the debian bug tracking system with "reports" that are just noise (like this one, since it's fixed upstream). > Bug reports are essential for QA. It’s better to advocate for bug > reports, not push for their suppression. if i go in a bakery and scream "my chair broke, i want a new one!" it serves no one purpose. You need to submit the requests in the right place for the right people to act on. > > that do not belong to the debian tracking system (as mentioned > > before already). > > Please read the “Don't file bugs upstream” section of the bug > reporting procedure². yeah which you conveniently omitted to report the big `if` before hand: "If you file a bug in Debian, don't send a copy to the upstream software maintainers yourself" -- what we are telling you is to NOT file these bugs at all in the debian bts, but directly upstream. you dont like github? it's sucks for you, it doesnt mean we are happy to accept your dubious quality reports. If i were the maintainer of this package, i'd bulk close all your report and invalid and ask the BTS maintainer to temporarily ban you from submitting more. -- Sandro "morph" Tosi My website: http://sandrotosi.me/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi Twitter: https://twitter.com/sandrotosi
