[Bug 389289] Re: Cannot query freedesktop.org's bugzilla

[Bryce Harrington]

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: python-bzutils
+ [Problem]
+ bzutils-get is able to parse csv text, but was only doing this for type 'text/plain', and would fail if used against bugzillas configured to use the (correct) type 'text/csv'.
  
- bryce at chideok:~/src/python-bzutils/python-bzutils-0.2/src$ ./bzutils-get
- https://bugs.freedesktop.org 21190
+ [Impact]
+ Makes tool useless for a variety of well known bugzilla instances.
+ 
+ [Addressed]
+ Fix uploaded to Lucid directly, and the same patch has been sponsored for karmic-proposed.
+ 
+ [Patch]
+ http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35132404/bzutils.debdiff
+ 
+ [Reproduction]
+ bryce at chideok:~/src/python-bzutils/python-bzutils-0.2/src$ ./bzutils-get https://bugs.freedesktop.org 21190
  
  Usage: bzutils-get <url> <bugnumber>
  
  <url>:      The base url of the bugzilla server.
  <query>:    Number/ID of the bug

  bzutils.exceptions.BugListParseError: Couldn't parse bug list: unknown format
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Probably none.  This tool also has a very narrow userbase so the potential impact on users is similarly quite small.
