A couple of things could be done to help with that: - Bring back the x-bugzilla .desktop metadata, and have ABRT file upstream bugs - Make ABRT reports more useful (right now it's attaches a *lot* of extra information, basically everything it can, as files). It's not possible to search for parts of backtraces in the query tool. - More useful templates when filing bugs, explaining where to file RFEs and non-packaging bugs. As (for GNOME and a lot of other tools) we simply package upstream, it would be most better to point directly to the right place to file bugs. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
