  No, a bug can be confirmed when you believe the report describes a genuine bug in enough detail that a developer could start working on a fix.  However, you still should not confirm bugs which you have reported.  Be sure to look at [[DebuggingProcedures|Debugging Procedures]] to find out what is necessary for certain types of bugs.

  == What is the best way to find out the version of software someone is using? ==
  
  Let's consider Firefox on 8.04, Hardy, where it is possible to find out the version of the software in several different ways:
@@ -27, +51 @@

  To use the command '''dpkg-query''' open a terminal window (Applications -> Accesories -> Terminal) and type '''dpkg-query -W firefox'''. It will print one line of two words;  the package name and the version:  "firefox 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3".  It is the quickest way to find out the version of a package.
  
  To use '''Synaptic''' (a graphical package manager), go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic package manager.  A pop-up dialog is presented asking your password, after which the package manager appears.  In Synaptic's tool bar press the Search button and enter "firefox" (without the quotes).  After a few seconds Synaptic shows a list of packages containing that name; just scroll through it to find the firefox line. The second column in the list (labelled Installed Version) shows the package version you have installed but widen the column until you can be sure that all of the version is displayed.
+ 
+ == Found a bug which is not in English, what to do? ==
+ 
+ Bug reports should be in English as that is the most commonly used language by Ubuntu developers and bug triagers. In the event that a bug report is not received in English ask the reporter to translate their bug and any error messages that are not in English. In the event that you are concerned that the bug report is critical and needs to be translated quickly e-mail the Ubuntu translators [[https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators|mailing list]] for help in getting the bug translated. It's also a good idea to ask in the #ubuntu-bugs channel for translation or in the LoCo channels.
