Ubuntu Wiki

This week's Hug Day will focus on Confirmed Bugs without a package!

After you have triaged or fixed a bug put your Launchpad Id in the last column and set the row's background to green by adding lightgreen in the first cell of the column after rowbgcolor=. This will let people know that the bug in that row has been hugged.

Tools

For doing your work easier during the hug days remember to use the hugday-tools.

50 Newest Confirmed bugs without a package

These bug reports are the classic ones without a package but they have been Confirmed theoretically because another user experienced the problem. Since they are Confirmed we should work on assigning them to a package.

To mark it off the list you should:

• Assign it to a package
• For bonus Hug, test if the issue is still reproducible on Karmic.
