Re: What importance should this bug have?
David Alan Gilbert:
Note that the existing criteria give you other criteria; so for
example 'low' says it's for bugs with an easy workaround.
Now, I wouldn't generally knock something that caused a 'won't boot'
or problem with a critical device down to low because it's got
an easy work around, but I might knock it down one level.
While this in theory sounds logic; in practice I never had to use those
criteria, because something else weighed more.
For example, my computer suddenly stopped working after an upgrade. The
work-around was simply to configure GRUB to boot with a previous kernel,
but because at least 80% of people would require technical support for
doing so I decided to set it as critical.
So what I think is leaving specific cases for intuition rather to policy
will make the latest leaner.
