From Mandriva
Bugzilla Wishlist
The version of Bugzilla used by Mandriva is a fork of the original version, maintained by Warly. Here is a list of proposal, as he asked on the list http://archives.mandrivalinux.com/cooker/2004-11/msg00429.php :
| Features | Status |
|---|---|
| Xml-rpc interface, to query the database easily. This is a patch made by redhat. | |
| To be able to be in automatic CC for some packages, in order to receive the same message as maintener. | |
| Closing the bugs on upload, with a changelog message ( ie Close #XXX change the state of bug number XXX ). | |
| Being able to Own bugs still in the UNCONFIRMED status. | |
| Using one product per SRPM instead of one product per RPM. | |
| The ability to precise that the bug exist also in others releases. | |
| Sending all bugs to Cooker, even those on stable release (see the list archive http://archives.mandrivalinux.com/cooker/2004-11/msg01109.php). In fact, if sending all bugs to Cooker generates too much "Out Of Topic" mail, maybe we could create a new "bugzilla-stablereleases" mailing list for those who want to follow the bugs. The point is : the more people will see bug reports, the more they can help to solve/precise/confirm them. That can be good for bug responsiveness, and save some work to packages maintainers.

| Being able to report bug for more than one distribution | |
| To be able to change the distribution field of the bug |
