You need to enter bugzilla credentials and then it automatically files the bug details including uploading all files. Before it does this, it checks if a bug has already been filed with this mechanism so that there aren't duplicates filed. It'll tell you the URL for the found bug. You don't have to check, it does it for you. If you go to the that bug URL there might be a suggestion how to work around it. > > I agree that the behavior is not ideal.

If there isn't already a bug filed then I'd definitely say you've hit an edge case. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
