That reminds me - time to take the monthly look at my bugzilla, at <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160940> ======================================= Bugzilla Bug 160940 ? anaconda bombs out on Sony Picturebook while "Reading package information" ======================================= No, no progress. Might as well have written to the Pope. Only response I got was to ask for the Traceback, which I had already given, in full, in the original report. I posted another bugzilla on the kdesktop site, <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=718>. Again, no response except from others saying they had the same problem. Someone wrote to me with a patch, which worked (after re-compiling xorg). I reported this, but got no response. I wrote to half-a-dozen people mentioned in the source, but none replied. Then, about a year later the patch was applied, again without mention in the bugzilla. So I'm afraid my experience is that posting a bugzilla is unlikely to be a rewarding experience. Also the way the bugzilla site is arranged is like something out of the ark. Someone ought to ask themselves, "Is this the best way of organising a bug-reporting site? Will people find it simple to report bugs? Will people find it simple to search through the site." As far as I am concerned, the answer is "No. No. No." -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
