Dear Fedoracommunity,
Over the course of the day I recieved 22^3 mails from your friendly Bug Zapper. Most of those bugs where bugs I had reported upon crashes using bug-buddy. Bugs on different desktop tools such as .. synergy, evolution, gwibber , gnome-settings and probably some others
I do understand that I development goes on and on .. and your fancy devs don't care anymore about bugs I reported on Fedora 12 as they are all hacking on Fedora 15.
But what I don't get is that non of these bugs was ever touched, they've been automatically created , and automatically closed
Some packagers just don't respond. Not even for packaging mistakes. :(
<a href="http://tieguy.org/blog/2004/09/">Luis</a> already told us ages ago .. that every project needs a bugmaster apparently Fedora replaced that bugmaster with a Bug Zapper.
So can someone please explain my why I should continue to try to improve Fedora by reporting bugs ?
Glad you ask this. The bugzapping script is stupid. It asks the reporter for NEEDINFO when in fact it ought to ask WTF has the packager not responded since Fedora 12?
