I really believe it. 
I only mean about "the final authority" and "the final judgement" :-).

Re: Old bugs cleaning

2000-12-29 Thread Luis Arocha -data-

Hi all,

I've put a .png image in http://perso.wanadoo.es/larocha/debian/brs.png
I suggest you to take and print it before continue reading.

I've reading carefully answers to my post and I agree that an indiscriminate
mailing may be counterproductive.

So I've changed my mind and this are my ideas now:

- Make a program to view bugs.

- This program would let: 
- Ask Bug Tracking System for bug details
- Ask user (submitter) if bug must be closed
- Suggest maintainer to close
- Bypass.
- Save a log of what happens with bug.
- Bug assigned
- Ask the BTS for Details
- Details arrived
- Ask user at [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
- User answer
- User bounces
- Suggestion to close
- Bypass (Must be open)
- Send user answer to maintainer (Must be open)
  ¨May be send answer to BTS and notify to Maintainer?
- Save a log of what the reviser does. (Only process results)
- Send this log to a superviser.
- Get a group of bugs to check from superviser.

- All communicacions would be done thru email.

- In order to accomplish this goals the BTS system must be interrogated for
  bugs between dates. I don't know how this can be done because I don't know
  BTS internals.
  
- Somebody must have control over a group of revisers. This superviser is who
  will interrogate the BTS system and receive revisers log.
  
- Merged bugs: only bug with lower number should be processed by reviser.

- To be done with perl/Tk & procmail.

--

Other ideas:
 
- Once this program be finished, Applicants on New Maintainers queue may be
  invited to participate in this "closed bug hunting". May be in program
  development & testing too.
  
- I think those communications must have the Debian-qa signet so predefined
  emails must be carefully redacted in order to be taked seriously and obtain
  all possible information. (When I write in English I feel like a 6 years old
  English-spoken child) :-(
  
  
Saludos

Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Package: libset-object-perl
Version: current in unstable as of 28-dec-00

[ This bug report was automatically generated. If it is in error, close it. ]

libset-object-perl depends on a version of perl prior to perl-5.6; either
perl-5.004, perl-5.004-base, perl-5.005, or perl-5.005-base.

Perl 5.6 is now the main perl package in debian, and we want to remove the
dependancies on older versions of the perl packages ASAP so they can be
removed from people's systems, saving space.

Perl 5.6 is quite compatable with perl 5.005. Even binary perl module
packages that were built with perl 5.005 will work with perl 5.6. See the
perldelta man page for details.

If you're using dh_perl, simply rebuilding your package on a system with
perl 5.6 installed will probably fix the dependancy. If you're not, it's
still pretty trivial; a rebuild on a system with perl 5.6 installed and a
manual modification of the dependancies.

If you are unable or unwilling to do this, I am happy to do NMUs to fix
these bug reports on request.
