No, they shouldn't and they shouldn't need to. We cannot force
our reporters to crete accounts in the upstream bugzillas. We
should deliver comments from the upstream bugzilla to our one
(via XML-RPC I guess).
This has the inconvenience that :
a) Two (or more) conversations are taking place in the bug report.
b) Comments like "the fix proposed in comment #7 looks good" lose
all meaning, unless you know what comments come from which bug
tracker.
I suppose we can live with it, though.
the upstream bugzilla in other tab. However, I have to admit that
after brief query in the upstream database (e.g., in mozilla with
the query tool in the new bug page) I just dump the bug there and
let upstream triagers show that they know much better what's in
their bugzilla.
Thanks for making their work more difficult, I guess.
If someone does this right, maybe it would be possible to cascade all
the way up from user/site/enterprise instances and a working version
included in the distribution would have templates for all the packages
and a checkbox for whether or not to push a specific entry upstream or
not. That way everyone could track their own problems, their local or
company helpdesk could be added as the next escalation, and on to the
distribution if it wasn't a local problem without having to deal with
different interfaces or creating new logins.
