Bug ID: 435117
Summary: How can we report package bugs for a distro running
Discover as the primary app installer?
Product: Discover
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: lei...@leinir.dk
Reporter: yllumin...@gmail.com
CC: aleix...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Is there a location to report and triage package problems vs general Discover
problems?
We need a central repository for issues that pertain to package problems
reporting. Let me give you a usecase / scenario:
I have just started using OpenSUSE with KDE and Discover is the apparently
preferred system for installing (Discovering) applications generally (it seems
better than the YaST mechanism). I installed an application, Midori, that has a
bug playing back video. When I tried to report the bug the developers seem to
want to refer us to the package maintainer, but in that Discover is being used,
there's no way of finding this readily.
I was hoping to find a place where I could report issues to either OpenSUSE or
the Discover developers to look for further resolution options, but I realize
that this probably must go to whoever made the package originally for OpenSUSE.
Discover could (should?) facilitate a central repository for distro maintainers
to find issues. If you don't feel that that is appropriate, then at the very
least some kind of data about the package's creator and maintainer should be
show for problem reporting.
