Package: qa.debian.org X-Debbugs-Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am subscribed to some packages via the PTS. For example, I receive copies of all messages related to the twiki package.
Now, recently, twiki has gone through a number of update cycles where a lot of bugs have been closed. <http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/t/twiki/current/changelog> Version 1:4.0.5-9.1 which was uploaded Tuesday this week closed 12 open bugs. Guess twice how many copies of the following message I have received? From: Debian Bug Tracking System <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Christian Perrier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Bug#xxxxxx: marked as done (bug title) I can understand the motivation for detailed reporting to the package owner and the bug submitter, but I think for the majority of PTS subscribers just the upload notice would suffice. (Tangentially, see also #340863) If <http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ch-resources.en.html#s-pkg-tracking-system> tries to explain how to fix this if you don't like the defaults, then I don't understand it, and in any event, does the current default really make sense? (Opting out from bts-control sounds like it might work, but then do you lose other less predictable messages, too?) /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less. Well, maybe not. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
