Clear message

Here we have a sampling of bugs to work on for Hug Day. After you have triaged or fixed a bug put your name in the last column and set the row's background to green by adding lightgreen in the first cell of the column after "background-color:" and before ";". This will let people know that the bug in that row has been hugged.

You might find it more convenient to edit the wiki page using editmoin a command line utility for editing moinmoin wiki pages. It is available as a package in Gutsy and Hardy. More information including an easier way to do this was mailed to the Bug Squad.

All Bugs

If they deal with a distribution upgrade should be tagged so they indicate what they were trying to upgrade from and to i.e. feisty2gutsy, edgy2feisty or dapper2edgy.

If they deal with an upgrade using media (CD-ROM or DVD) they should be tagged as cdrom-upgrade.

Information regarding how to debug update-manager can be found in the wiki.

114 bugs New bugs about update-manager

These bug reports have been reported about update-manager since the last update-manager Hug Day and are still in a New status. You can find other new update manager bugs in Launchpad.
