Package: reportbug Version: 4.10.2 Severity: wishlist Yesterday I managed to fix a problem with nvidia-glx package. I installed the version from the unstable repository. The I filed a bug report about, as I was hoping, the older buggy version. Because reportbug generates a template with a fat sing "Please type etc." and I am not too interested in details of Debian bug reporting process I don't even look above that line. I should have. The bug was filed against the unstable version which wasn't my intention nad got closed immediatelly.
I wish report bug explicitly asked a question "File the report against version X.Y.Z [Y|n]:" In most cases users hit [Enter]. It'd be closer to other bug tracking systems wher users choose on their own the version to be reported as buggy. -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: INTERFACE="text" ** /home/steelman/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "3.39" mode standard ui text realname "Łukasz Stelmach" email "lukasz.stelm...@iem.pw.edu.pl" -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 0.7.25.3 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii python 2.5.4-9 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-reportbug 4.10.2 Python modules for interacting wit reportbug recommends no packages.
