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."
