I have some additions: 7. fixes bug X, but does not claim to fix it This can often happen with hardware related bugs, e.g. with the kernel where something starts to work again 8. The package updated sucessfully, but was not used intentionally. No breakage noticed. This shows, that at least on the test machine, there are no broken deps, conflicts or broken scriptlets. Also it would be nice to provide hardware testing feedback, e.g. for Xorg updates to say "Works with nouveau, Geforce XY, using VGA out and XV", which then shows that e.g. 3D support, DVI out or multi screen support was not tested. This is kind of related to testing with a test plan, but having this data available in a format that can be easily parsed, would be nice, too. Maybe this could be done with adding smolt information in the feedback and the tested features (XV, VGA, DVI, 3D, ...) and the update needs to have some meta data, which kind of devices are supported (e.g. only Geforce devices for the nouveau driver package).
