[Bug 1504081] Re: Ubuntu system image has two unsynced bug lists

 

It's more complicated than that.  For historical reasons, the project
also tracks bugs in the server and other related pieces.  There is a tag
on the project 'client' that tracks bugs specifically in the client.
The client *is* a separate project; it has a separate upstream release
and a separate packaging branch.

The guidelines I've been using are:

* Report bugs on the project.  If they are in the client component, tag them with 'client'
* Problems specifically related to the way system-image client is packaged in Ubuntu are reported on the package

I do not mind if the bugs are initially reported on the package.
Whenever I get time or have the need to work on the project, I regularly
cull the packaging bugs and transfer/tag them over to the project.

** Changed in: system-image (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix

** Tags added: client

** Also affects: ubuntu-system-image
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

Title:
  Ubuntu system image has two unsynced bug lists

Status in Ubuntu system image:
  Won't Fix
Status in system-image package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  system-image has two unsynced bug lists.
  <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-image/+bugs>
  <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-system-image>

  This needlessly risks quality: some bugs are only in one list, some
  people will know about only the other list, and even when a bug is in
  both lists they can have different importance levels, making it harder
  to tell what to work on next.

  For these reasons, since 2013 Ubuntu Touch policy has been to track bugs on packages, not projects.
  <https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2013-November/037821.html>

  To fix this:
  1. Go through each bug reported on the project, and move it to the package.
  2. At <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-download-manager/+configure-bugtracker>, change "Bugs are tracked:" to "Somewhere else".
