Hi all! Thinking of changing the default behaviour of the devscripts "bts show" (aka "bts bugs") command, and want to ask for opinions before I do so.
The BTS behaviour of http://bugs.debian.org/<package> has recently changed. It used to resolve to: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=<package> which listed all open and closed bugs in the package, without any version tracking being taking into consideration in the listings. It now resolves to: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=<package>;dist=unstable which lists the status of all bugs in that package in respect to the version(s) of the package currently in unstable. I was confused by this, because bugs which I had just closed through an upload were still shown as open, because the autobuilders hadn't yet built the newest version on all architectures. But it does not show bugs only relating to experimental or stable versions. I would like to change the default behaviour of the bts show command, when used as "bts show <package>" or "bts show <maintainer>" to behave as it used to do, by manually rewriting the URL to the earlier form before downloading. Before I make this change, I'd like feedback, please; if it's unpopular, I won't do it. Julian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
