You see more people ranting that bugs aren't resolved, or more people happy because their bugs are resolved? I'm sorry but I can say at least for myself that most of the bugs i marked RESOLVED FIXED are actually resolved, a couple of them had little problems fixed just a bit later. When I can't be sure if a change is fixed, I usually use RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST (If I'm sure enough to say that is resolved) or I just ask the reporter to see if the bug *is* really resolved.

I base opinion that on some of the kicking and screaming > I've seen on bugzilla in the past. ;) Reopening WONTFIX, CANTFIX or INVALID bugs stating that "it's a bug because I screwed up everything and *you* must fix that for me" is something I don't really like. Reopening bugs because the fix isn't complete, or because there is still the same problem is fine. What is really annoying is getting bug reopened because after one bug is fixed there's something else not working right, and the reporter continues on the same bug report. One bug, one report. If after a fix there are still problems, open a *new* bug for a new issue. -- Diego "Flameeyes" Pettenò Gentoo Developer - http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/ (Gentoo/FreeBSD, Video, Gentoo/AMD64, Sound, PAM)
