20080610

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.

5-a-day-ing

During hug days you can also do 5-A-Day for this one you can do the following in order to tag your work on the hug day:

  • 5-a-day --add-tag hugday-20080610
  • Add bugs to 5-a-day as usual
  • And when done with hug day run: 5-a-day --remove-tag hugday-20080610

More information about tags here.

All Bugs

If they deal with a distribution upgrade should be tagged so they indicate what they were trying to upgrade from and to e.g. feisty2gutsy, gutsy2hardy or dapper2hardy.

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.
