...and this is complete nonsense -- I was too stupid to find the code when I wrote the answer. lp.bug.browser.bugtarget.FileBugViewBase.submit_bug_action does indeed create links between bugs and HWDB submissions: for submission_key in extra_data.hwdb_submission_keys: submission = submission_set.getBySubmissionKey( submission_key, self.user) if submission is not None: bug.linkHWSubmission(submission) (line 648). So: A link between a bug and a HWDB submission is created, if the the HWDB submission exists. If doesn't for whichever reason (mostly likely because checkbox did create a submission ID but nothing was uploaded or an error like a timeout occurred during the upload), the invalid / non-extistent submission key is silently ignored. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD4DBQFLjjryekBPhm8NrtARAsmwAJY6m31N9lwmSYMi8HaOrEVDxEQcAJ98rq0r bp0H3NEemAkQnnZHIbqNSg== =gXiC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- checkbox writes to .cache/checkbox/submission before submission completes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/530380 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
