UPGRADE complete bugs.gentoo.org
Hey All,

The upgrade for bugs.gentoo.org went exactly as I had planned for.
Completed in under 20 minutes, which included this email. I've upgraded
our Bugzilla from the old 2.18rc2 to 2.18.1. This fixes more security
and code than I can even begin to mention. I have cleaned out a lot of
the code and added in some nice features.

Those nice features I'd like to higlight:

(1) In the bug list, enhancements are colored green, while critical and
blocker bugs are still colored red. This should help in picking out the
enhancement bugs.
(2) Spam-Spider avoidance measures. When not logged in to the bugzilla
system, all reporters and commenters show up just as names, there are NO
email addresses. When logged in, one can see names and email addresses.
This should help stump spam spiders which parse web pages looking for
name@domain.org
(3) I have cleaned up the 'useful links' and footer section. Your logged
in name, and log out link is now found left justified under the bugzilla
version. As opposed to all the way on the right and as 'regular' text.
(4) Comments now have [reply] links where clicking, will append the
reply into the 'Additional Comments' textbox where one can easily
comment on earlier replies.
(5) Strikeouts now work for bugs with closed-like resolutions. Allows a
user to more quickly tell the status of a resolved bug.

Anything else I've forgotten, I will happily take full credit for. I
would also like to thank the numerous bugzilla developers over in
irc.mozilla.org in #mozwebtools. They were endlessly patient with my
questions and I am endlessly greatful.

I want to thank all those who use our bugzilla system for making Gentoo
Linux the great distribution it is.

Regards,
Jeffrey Forman

Something's wrong with the <i> tags -- the one before "Additional" is
never closed.

<span class="bz_comment">
------- <i>Additional Comment
<a name="c2" href="#c2">#2</a> From

<!-- JSF - unfangled all the emails, so they are spam spider unfriendly -->
<i>Brandon Low</i>

</span>

Thus all comments show up as italic.

I noticed a bug [1] which, when resolved after the upgrade, did not list
the cause of resolution (in this case, it was a dup). Is this no longer
required? I rather liked that feature, as it enabled people to see, at a
quick glance, the final status of the bug...

something like this:

What |Removed |Added
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Status|NEW |RESOLVED
Resolution| |DUPLICATE

yes, indeed, the Resolution is empty, now.

one more thing: comment #15 of bug 92622 [1] shows the bug which was a
dup as marked through. perhaps this is intentional (resolved bugs show
this attribute?), but it is very annoying, and it makes it hard to see
the bug number without clicking on it to go to the link.

sorry for the deluge of posts. overall, though, i very much like the new
bugzilla, so don't take my comments the wrong way ;-)

Easy guys, please. I'm only one person doing all this work. I can only
do one thing at a time. (No, that is not an invitation for people to
suggest themselves to help do it. Right now it's easy for my brain to
just do fixes in a linear fashion rather than forking() to other people)

I've looked at the actual DB behind bugzilla, and that seems to be the

resolution, all the other bugs look fine. *shrug*

bug 89521 [1] also has this problem. both of these bugs are assigned to
docs-team@g.o and are marked dups. perhaps one of these features is
causing this problem?

its not too important, just a minor annoyance, so if you're overly busy,
feel free to ignore/wait/whatever

Many others seem to have the same problem. Examples: 51546, 55672, 57225,
65220, 71578, 72700, 16516.

Don't think it has anything to do with age. Just marked this one a dup this
morning.

Bingo, I found the correlation between those bugs and the previous ones
mentioned by Daniel. They have all been marked as duplicates of other
bugs. Therefore bugzilla does not put a "resolution" in there, only
marking them as status: resolved.

Re: UPGRADE complete bugs.gentoo.org [ In reply to ]
I retract my earlier statement. In the upgrade, I forgot to fully copy
over all the resolution states. (Don't you just love that comfortable
feeling that comes with editing a live system?) Now when a bug is marked
as a duplicate it shows up as

Status: RESOLVED
Resolution: DUPLICATE of bug (some other bug #)

Sorry for the confusion, I sit corrected.

(fearing the jeff wrath)

can we get the dup status added back in though? i know, i know, we're being
nitpicky, and not too many folks have stood up and applauded this effort like
they should have (ahem). Just...unsettling to see bugs marked as resolved -
make it sound like i did something rather than find that the same problem had
been reported a few times :)

Re: UPGRADE complete bugs.gentoo.org [ In reply to ]
Michael,

You are very welcome, it was a pleasure to upgrade such a critical
piece of Gentoo, even though it required time I could have spent outside
in the Florida sun. As for your question about adding in the duplicate
status. 'Duplicate' isn't a status, its a resolution state. I point you
to http://bugs.gentoo.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#status
for a better explanation. So in a more abstract sense, a Duplicate bug
has been 'resolved,' as someone has determined that it is a duplicate
bug and pointed the bug to its appropriate original filing. With that
said, I put this issue to rest. ;) Yes, it's nitpicky, but I won't
impart any bodily harm on you.

-Jeffrey

Heh, that explains why I spend so much time working on Gentoo -- this
rainy Oregon weather. =)

Some of the new features are pretty sweet though, so thanks for doing it!

Is it possible to add some feature which will allow end users to change
timezone in which the times are reported? Or at least allow UTC?

Re: UPGRADE complete bugs.gentoo.org [ In reply to ]
Jan,

I point you to http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92449#c34
Lance gave a great explanation of the issue before I could get around to
replying. The time is based on the database behind bugzilla, which is
currently residing in Oregon (PDT). I am unaware of any setting for a
user-defined time zone at this moment, but I will keep my ear on
bugzilla development with regards to that.

Thank you so much for working on this, Jeffrey - I really appreciate it.
Nice to see that the upgrade went smoothly too.

While color coding is good, I think it would be nice (at least from an
accessibility point of view) to still have enhancement requests written
in italics.

That's the most useful new feature in this release, if you ask me.

This is nice too, been missing that functionality.

Thank you to all who made the upgrade possible and smooth (at least it
was smooth for me ;)
