For now, we don't - bugs are reported no matter what. As the list of bugs build up, we should be able to develop heuristics about what software vs. hardware errors look like. When we start being able to identify hardware errors programatically, we can add a more sophisticated solution that warns the user about potential hardware issues instead of reporting to us.
To be clear, I'm proposing this change as a necessary step on the path to a better solution, rather than a complete solution in itself. A better solution can only be built on real-world data, and I believe this is the only practical way of gathering that data. -- checkfs.sh should report fsck errors as bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259919 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
