Correct, and a huge problem with Ubuntu.

In my experience, once a bug has been tagged as "incomplete",
basically the package maintainer is washing his hands of it and won't
even provide the bug reporters with a list of what extra information
is required to complete/confirm the bug report.

"Incomplete" is basically shorthand for the package maintainers to say
"I can't be bothered with this and I never will".

Maybe I should raise a bug; "Incomplete tag used to ignore vast
swathes of important bugs"

Can anyone shed any light on how an inexperienced bug reporter can get
assistance with promoting a bug from Incomplete to Confirmed? Or
indeed give any examples where a bug has actually migrated from
Incomplete to a satisfactory state?
