Please report this bug to the provider of the software package at http://www.betavine.net/bvportal/web/linux_drivers .

I wonder if apport could be smarter about how it deals with crash reports involving twisted by either raising an error if it the crash is not in an Ubuntu package or filing it against the correct package. -- Brian Murray @ubuntu.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

No, the milestone is correctly set for ubuntu-8.10. Every bug report is considered to apply to the release of Ubuntu that is currently under development - which is 8.10 at the moment. In the event that the Hardy nomination was approved then you would see a "Hardy" task for the bug report. -- Brian Murray @ubuntu.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It's always best to assume others have good intentions than to assume they are intentionally screwing things up. > Moreover, when you triage bugs everyday, and everyday you find > 'need-packaging' reports from the same guy that pollutes Launchpad, it is > irritating. Unless the bugs are actually invalid, I don't see how they "pollute" Launchpad. plus, he hasn't actually opened "no less than 700" bugs. There's 689 listings in "bugs related to", and some of those are the same bug appearing twice, such as 251737 which is in the list 4 times (Ubuntu, mac4lin, Gutsy backports, Feisty backports). So the problem really is smaller than you're making it out to be. Clicking on a few other Ubuntu related bugs, they all seem to be open against Gutsy and Feisty backports as well, so I'd say that he's probably actually got only around 300. Quite possibly less. Unless a large number of these bugs are actually (and obviously) invalid, I can't see that this guy is doing anything wrong. In fact, he's gotten some of these things packaged, so he's helped Ubuntu out I'd say. -- Wolfger http://wolfger.wordpress.com/ The world is a mess, and I just... need to rule it.

Do you take into account that cupsys was renamed to cups in the Intrepid release cycle? This means the figures of "cupsys" and "cups" bugs have to get summed up. For triagers it menas that everything which is still valid in Intrepid needs to be moved to "cups". In addition. triagers should know that the printing subsystem consists of many packages, not only cups, but also ghostscript, foomatic-*, hplip, gutenprint, splix, system-config-printer, ... Users do not know that and assign printing-related bug reports to cups/cupsys or system-config-printer in most cases. Triagers should move these to the correct packages.

For now lets keep (and move) bugs affecting 8.10+ from cupsys to the cups package. Bugs from before 8.10 should be in the cups package. This isn't the first time that a package has been renamed and it seems to happen frequently enough that I am talking to the Launchpad bugs team about what can be done with bug reports when a package is renamed.

The best would be to add support for package renaming to Launchpad: Package pages should show the full history, also of the releases under old names. Going to the URL of the old name should automatically forward the user to the new name. Same for bug reporting. New bugs reported for a renamed package should be automatically posted under the new package name and existing bugs be moved. I would say you move all bugs to cups by a script and then regenerate the list.

I think it first would be best if you can test the most recent daily live Intrepid image - http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . It should contain the most recent 2.6.27-7.12 kernel. You should be able to test using a LiveCD. Assuming your keyboard issue still exists after testing a suspend/resume cycle, lets go ahead and have you open a bug in Launchpad. I myself an not certain of the appropriate package to assign it against just yet, but for now let's just have you assign it to the linux kernel package: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug We can always update the bug to be against a different package later if necessary. The following wiki helps describe the typical kernel debugging information your bug report should contain: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies It would also be best if you could wait to capture your dmesg output (described in the above wiki) until after you've done a suspend/resume cycle. There are also a few other things I'd be interested in having you try, but first lets confirm it's still an issue. We can then follow up more via your bug report.

Well, the "setup" action is not supported by Ubuntu's vboxdrv init script. IIRC it was me who has removed it, when merging the upstream init script, since it's not meant to be used in Ubuntu (with virtualbox-ose-modules before and DKMS now). It seems like sirjep is missing the virtualbox-ose-source package, which contains the DKMS parts, which setup the modules for a new kernel/package version. It is a recommends only, so you can easily miss it when installing with apt-get.
