> That's 10 times a week, that seems very often to me yes. My understanding is that this is not a correct extrapolation of the numbers in the graph - that the average given for each day is based on the number of users who sent submissions *on that day*, not on the number of users who have ever submitted. So the value on this graph will *always* be >= 1, and that doesn't actually tell us anything AFAICS. Hopefully Evan can provide some more data here. > >If I was still working on the installer, I could go to the website > >right now, punch ubiquity into the box and instantly have a list of > >what I need to focus my attention on.

The top five crashes on errors.u.c on Foundations team packages for the month of August are: bug #1027648 - ubiquity bug #818760 - update-manager bug #926340 - aptdaemon bug #972436 - update-manager bug #628104 - update-manager Of these: - 1 has just been published as an SRU (so will probably fall down the list soon) - 1 is in progress and still targeted to 12.04.1 - 1 has been accepted into precise-proposed last week, and errors.u.c confirms that no one is reporting the crash in the new version - 1 has been triaged for a while and will be one to look at after 12.04.1 - 1 is a surprise recent addition to the priority bug list, noticed by way of errors.u.c. This is in addition to the other top crashers from errors.u.c that have already been fixed since the precise release - there have been a number of them, but I can't tell you how many because we weren't keeping score. So, no, I don't agree that there has been little progress outside of software-center. Foundations is absolutely making use of this to help us prioritize bugfixing. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
