Thanks to the great Olav we have XML-RPC on GNOME bugzilla (testing version). So I finally committed to an experimental branch the new bug-buddy “less is more”:
- No more application/product/component selection
- No more long descriptions
- No more mostfreq stuff
- No more gdb pages
- No more save report
- No more sendmail at all
Just catch the crash, get the info and send it. The remaining issues are:
- Should we ask the user what was he doing during the crash? (Windows and other reporting tools are not doing it)
- Should we ask email address to the user?
