Dealing with bugs and bug reports on Lubuntu

 

Hi,

With the growing of testing, there is many bug reported on the mailing
list (which is good news ! Thanks to all testers :)). It was the easiest
way for the beginning, but now we need to organize those reports.

The right way is to report bug on Launchpad. You have an how-to on
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs . Basically, you need to
run ubuntu-bug the_name_of_the_package , and follow the instructions.

If ubuntu-bug say that the package is not part of Ubuntu, that's because
the package contain specific changes for Lubuntu. In this case, you
should report it to the mailing list, or on the testing page [1].

To follow bugs on Lubuntu, there is several links :

- The testing page [1], which summarize currents bugs on the ISO. There
is also a specific page for pcmanfm2 testing [2].

- Packages report [3] : which summarize all Lubuntu's packages, except
which are maintained by other Team (like the Desktop Team which maintain
GNOME packages).

- Specific Lubuntu bugs : reported bug on others packages which affect
directly Lubuntu.

If you want to help, you can add informations on bugs which affect you.
A good how-to is on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs , or you can ask for
help here :)

Reporting bugs on Launchpad will make the development really easier, and
will keep tracking somewhere all reports you made.

Thanks for your participation :)

Regards,
Julien Lavergne
