Policy on this is: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/BugStatusWorkFlow#Priority_and_Severity as Michal said, there is no official definition of Priority, and the only group entitled to set it is the maintainer(s) of the affected component; maintainers can choose to use it however they like, or not at all. Most maintainers don't use it at present. Severity can be set by initial reporter, triager, or maintainer. It didn't get set when you reported it because abrt doesn't set this field. It hasn't been set by a triager yet, because it hasn't been triaged (thunderbird isn't actually on our priority triage components list; I don't think anyone's working on triaging tbird bugs at present). And it hasn't been set by the maintainer because they haven't looked at it yet (and they may not really care about severity settings either). Also, as Michal pointed out, you didn't provide any explanation in the report of when the crash actually happened, or explain that it crashes every time you send a mail. Even if a triager were to look at it, it would be impossible to judge a severity based on the information you provided in the report. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
