I haven't been asked by Alberto to file upstream reports, but I have been recently asked to do so by Christopher Penalver in relation to bug 1444110; and I have done so; and he has handled the linking with Launchpad and the LibreOffice Bugzilla; and I have seen upstream reports coming back through Launchpad, though not everything going on on Bugzilla is making it back to Launchpad; and bug priority on Bugzilla has changed from high to highest. So based on my limited evidence this seems to be working, and it seems like a reasonable and decent sort of way to bring the bugs to the attention of the upstream maintainers. I recall a similar experience a few years back, but not the details. I get that filing an upstream bug request for an out of date, unsupported version is not especially useful, but finding out that such is the case seems potentially quite useful. -- Chris Hermansen · clhermansen "at" gmail "dot" com C'est ma façon de parler. -- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality
