A week ago, I started the long overdue task of triaging bugs reported on iceape\/mozilla<\/a>. When I started, the count was 364, duplicated excluded.<\/p>\n

I'm still not halfway through the bug list, but already the bug count is down to 263, as of today. That is about a hundred bugs closed or merged. I can't believe there were still bugs so old but yet not merged to even older occurrences of the same bugs.<\/p>\n

Since it is easier to appreciate the effort with nice colors, I started graphing the bug counts for iceape<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Sune Vuorela started some similar things for kde<\/a> a while ago, so, thinking this could be useful for a whole lot more people than KDE and Mozilla maintainers, I also started graphing the bug counts for all packages<\/a>. There is not enough backlog to have more than the last week, though. I'm a bit concerned about the fact that the RRD updates take a lot of time and may induce some load on gluck... Please DSA hit me if you want it to be moved elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Anyways, back to iceape bugs, the oldest bug I closed was #80787<\/a>, which was actually fixed as soon as I first uploaded xulrunner<\/a> a year ago. On the other hand, the oldest I didn't<\/em> close is #78654<\/a>. There are some<\/a> other<\/a> winners<\/a> that I'm amazed they've not been treated upstream in the last 6 years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Now, while I tried to correctly and conveniently tag these oldest bugs, I didn't take the required amount of time to track them in upstream bugzilla. So if you, dear reader, have a little bit of time, I would really appreciate if you could go through the list of bugs<\/a>* that are tagged upstream, but not yet forwarded and either find them<\/a> in upstream bugzilla, or file them<\/a> if they don't exist there.<\/p>\n

* strangely enough, the raw=yes argument to the BTS doesn't seem to work properly. You can get a raw list (with no ordering by status or severity) through the LDAP gateway with the following command line:<\/p>\n

ldapsearch -p 10101 -h bts2ldap.debian.net -x -b dc=current,dc=bugs,dc=debian,dc=org '(&(debbugsSourcePackage=iceape) (debbugsTag=upstream) (!(debbugsState=forwarded)) (!(debbugsState=done)))'<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Note the LDAP query is probably not optimal. You can add debbugsID at the end of the command line if you're only interested in the bug numbers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
