With all understanding of issue tracking and bug handling (I am
earning part of my living with that), from my point of view I have one
problem, that my relativly critical phone application ceases to
work after an upgrade, that is one ticket.

If this problem (previous version works, new one does not), which I
would classify as a regression, needs several fixes, well, then I
expect them be handled, one after another in the worst case if they
come completely unexpected.
I am sorry that most of this mess concerns the upstream part of
the package, but heck, I am using the debian package and not
upstream directly.

As we are working in a volunteer organsation, which I would
interpret in a way that there is no KPI or anything linked with
it with bug handling that endorses many small bugs opened and
closed even faster, I would could consider it good and friendly service
when you split bug reports yourself as you see them fit. I mean bug
cloning and merging is available, and who knows better than the
maintainer how to organise "his" bug reports.

Just closing them is what I consider extremly impolite.
You might want to have a look at some ITIL documentation, some
principles are not totally wrong and applicable also to debian
bug handling processes.

On the positive side, speaking of a volunteer and not a
professional organisation, I think I should be happy that there
was a fast reponse.

I will open a new ticket for this in the hope it will be dealt
with. I tried to be as constructive as I can by providing a patch
which works for me. From what I see from searches on the web
chan_capi is not the only application that breaks, it is just
anything that actually tries to open an isdn channel.

I will further go into details in the next bug report.

Bye,

Joerg
