Bug ID: 27532 Summary: debuginfod should ask the user for permission before downloading files Product: elfutils Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: debuginfod Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: sergiodj at sergiodj dot net CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org Target Milestone: --- One of the suggestions/complaints I got when we discussed Debian's debuginfod service on debian-devel was that the debuginfod client should inform the user before downloading the first file and ask for her consent before proceeding. I'm not a debuginfod hacker, but I think this would probably require some sort of permanent file (under ~/.config/, maybe?) where the decision can be stored, and some way to allow the user to easily change this decision later. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
