Hi, My name is Nick Rosbrook (enr0n on IRC and elsewhere), and I am a member of the Foundations team at Canonical. Please see below my application for ubuntu-bugcontrol.
1. Do you promise to be polite to bug reporters even if they are rude to you or Ubuntu? Have you signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct? Yes, I promise to be polite to all bug reporters. I have signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct (see https://launchpad.net/~enr0n). 2. Have you read Bugs/Triage, Bugs/Assignment, Bugs/Status and Bugs/Importance? Do you have any questions about that documentation? Yes, I have read the various wiki pages at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/, and I continue to use these pages as reference. I do not have any questions about the documentation at this time. 3. What sensitive data should you look for in a private Apport crash report bug before making it public? See Bugs/Triage for more information. Common examples of sensitive data include usernames, passwords, and private IP addresses. Many forms of data may be considered sensitive to different users, and we should carefully consider all crash report data before making it public. 4. Is there a particular package or group of packages that you are interested in helping out with? In my work on the Foundations team, I focus primarily on systemd and ubuntu-release-upgrader bugs. 5. Please list five or more bug reports which you have triaged and include an explanation of your decisions. Please note that these bugs should be representative of your very best work and they should demonstrate your understanding of the triage process and how to properly handle bugs. For all the bugs in the list, please indicate what importance you would give it and explain the reasoning. Please use urls in your list of bugs. https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1966203 - After investigating the issue and identifying a snapd udev rule as the root cause, I set the bug status accordingly for snapd and systemd. The importance should be low because the bug only results in unnecessary error messages, and a simple workaround exists. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jammy/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1969786 - I asked the reporter to run apport-collect to gather logs, and then was able to trace the exception and suggest a partial fix. I also added the appropriate rls tag for further discussion with the Foundations team. The importance should be high because the bug has a severe effect on a small number of users attempting upgrades. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jammy/+source/systemd/+bug/1979952 - I was able to reproduce the bug using the reporter information, so I added rls tags to discuss with Foundations. After deciding we wanted to work on it for Jammy and Kinetic, I created a test plan and completed the SRU template. The importance should be medium because it has a severe impact on an uncommon NFS configuration. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-docker-images/+bug/1988300 - Since I knew the root cause was in systemd packaging, I updated the bug status in systemd to confirmed, and marked the others as invalid. I provided justification for this in a comment. The importance should be high because it makes systemd-resolved uninstallable in Docker images. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1987720 - Using the log files collected by apport, I was able to identify a problematic PPA as the root cause. I provided this explanation with a suggestion on how to fix it, and marked the bug as incomplete until I heard back from the reporter. When they responded that my suggestion worked, I marked the bug as invalid. I also update the bug title to make it clear that a specific PPA caused the issue, which may be helpful if other users experience issues due to the same PPA. Since the bug was invalid there is no need to assign an importance. Thanks for taking the time to review my application. Best, Nick _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol Post to : ubuntu-bugcontrol@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
