Description Thomas Lübking 2011-07-27 18:42:19 UTC

OS:                Linux

See bug #252817 - it's a really nasty thing since we cannot really fix it (upstream, 4.7 will by default avoid it, though) and Martin keeps asking ppl. to not attach any more bugs - but i doubt they can see that comment through Dr.Konqui and even ifff.....

Therefore it would be great to rather point ppl. to the bug, tell them it's been blocked against new reports (maybe with a custom message?), attach them to the recp. but NOT have them file a new bugreport.

I'm aware that usually new reports might bring new information on how to reproduce/what's causing the bug, but in this example that's just not the case and while this bug reports will likely (hopefully, toctoctoc) come to an end soon, this might occur elsewhere or just again as well.

Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:

+1 for the idea

I think the prerequisite is some way for developers to mark one report as "not welcoming drkonqi/new comments anymore".  It might be done through :

    * close the report as "CLOSED" instead of "RESOLVED"
    * set some keyword like "/dev/null", or "blocking-drkonqi", or whatever sounds more appropriate and less confusing.

I would add also:
 * a custom flag to mark the bug as "no need to add other information"
 * a custom field with the the description of the solution/workaround (which can be fetched by drkonqui and showed to the user).

duplicates detection: drop support

with the advance of automatic crash reporting the duplicates detection
isn't really necessary anymore.

it also hasn't been all that great. the UI was terrible, the UX was
terrible, the code was expansive, parsing random comments from bugzilla
had potential of crashing drkonqi ...
