I can add comments to bugzilla entries, but I can't modify the status (nor other fields) of issues reported by others. Is there a way I could do that? I need to be able to mark the issues I fix as fixed. Thanks! ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

The 'editbugs' access is a community whitelist, in that others could bless you with it if you ask them. Since you're asking I've just blessed you with editbugs, and the ability to bless others. This should be fixed for you now. -- Cheers, Carlos. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Pedro, I've already fixed Jose's account, but this information is only on the glibc side here: https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Bugzilla%20Procedures ~~~ B0. The bug tracker is Bugzilla on sourceware.org. New users do not have the editbugs group access which means that while they can create bugs they cannot edit any aspects of the bug once created. This is done to avoid spammers modifying existing bugs. If you need the ability to edit bugs please request it on libc-alpha@sourceware.org or on IRC freenode at #glibc, the bugzilla admins and senior members of the community can grant this access once they know you're not a spammer. ~~~ Do we need something similar on the gdb wiki? -- Cheers, Carlos. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Yes, I think so. For now I put it on GDB's version of the contribution checklist: https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/ContributionChecklist I wonder whether we have somewhere a central place that includes information relevant to all products that the single bugzilla instance holds, not just glibc and gdb. (binutils, cygwin, elfutils, systemtap, etc.) Then all the different projects could reference it. There's the sourceware.org website of course, though that's not very convenient to edit. Does sourceware.org have a "sourceware" wiki? Or we could create such a page in one of the project's wikis and bless it as "cross project page". Anyway, just an idea that crossed my mind, there's not really that much information that I'm off hand thinking we'd put there.

It would be nice to have some shared page for project admins when referring people to: - Bugzilla accounts (the above editbugs discussion, spam measures, etc.) - Commit accounts (https://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/pdw/ps_form.cgi ssh troubleshooting, updating ssh keys, email forwards) - Mailinglist instructions (https://sourceware.org/lists.html#ml-requestor how to whitelist yourself, attachements/HTML policies, etc.) Cheers, Mark ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
