Check your attitude! It is way too hostile. I don't see that you add anything helpful here at all. I'm not whining passively-aggressively. I've sent a notification to abrt-owner a few days ago, and not only have I mentioned the false positive dupes, I've also communicated with the bug reporters to have their fresh backtraces to the ticket manually. Several of the wrong dupes I've looked up in bugzilla and posted the correct bug numbers. While at it, I've even closed several real dupes of the >600 open "nautilus" tickets. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
