[Bug 16284] New: Cannot add links to AppDB from bugzilla
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16284 Summary: Cannot add links to AppDB from bugzilla Product: WineHQ Bugzilla Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: bugzilla-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: dimesio(a)earthlink.net Submitted bug reports have a field for links to AppDB entries, but the information cannot be entered from bugzilla when filing the bug. Reporters have to log into the AppDB after having created a bug report and create the link from there. Many people don't bother to do this (to a newcomer, it's not even clear that this should be done), and it is a PITA for those who do. A forum user recently took it upon himself to add the appropriate bug links to the AppDB, and found that over 500 were needed. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16284 --- Comment #1 from nathan.n <saturn_systems(a)yahoo.com> 2008-12-05 02:57:26 --- The total count was 625 bugs linked to the respective wine appdb out of 2164 bugs that I looked at. Which was made easier because of Dan Kegals kind report http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=2968&highlight= Just did a spot check and can see that from the bugs submitted higher than "Bug 16203" this enhancement is badly needed. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

AppDB entries like Starcraft 2 has a huge number of bugs attached to it. Dógg knows how many duplicates there are. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20882 I've just added / resolved / closed a load for that application alone. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

That would at least address the problem of new users not even knowing this was expected, and I imagine is much easier to implement and maintain than changing the bugzilla code. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
