Contribute/Bugsquad/BugDays/KopeteDay2

[edit] Introduction

This bug day will take place on Sunday, July 20th 2008, but feel free to start early. The aim of this bug day is to clear out as many Kopete bugs as possible. We are continuing from where we left off after the first Kopete bug day, two weekends ago. Our target for triage is bugs listed in bugs.kde.org under the product Kopete.

Be sure to join #kde-bugs on irc.freenode.net, as this is where the bug-day will be coordinated. (You can even join now!)

You should be working with a KDE 4 version of Kopete, ideally from svn trunk or a beta or more recent version of KDE 4.1.

[edit] Workflow

• Always remember the golden rule of bug triage: Do NOT close bugs in bugzilla. List them on this wiki page in the appropriate section so they can be double checked before being closed in the bug tracker.

• First of all, put your IRC nickname in the sign-in section, along with details of what version of KDE / Kopete you are testing with. Be as specific as possible.

• Choose a group of bugs the division of labour section. Put your IRC nickname in the IRC Nickname column, and remember to keep the Status column up to date as you work through the group of bugs. There is a link provided in the Query column which will take you to the list of bugs in that group on bugzilla.

• For each bug in the list, you should try and reproduce it using the information provided in the bug report.

• • If you are able to reproduce the bug, add a comment on bugzilla saying what version of Kopete/KDE you are running and that you managed to reproduce the bug. Then add it to the Bugs still present in KDE 4 section.

• • If you cannot reproduce the bug, put a comment stating that (with your Kopete/KDE version) on the bug report in bugzilla, and add it to the Bugs no longer present in KDE 4 section.

• • If the bug report is not clear or does not provide enough information to reproduce the bug, leave a note asking politely for the information you would need to be able to try and reproduce the bug, and add it to the Bugs needing more information section.

• • There are several other categories below which bugs might fall into. Please look at them for details about when bugs should be put there.

Note

If you are unsure about what to do with a bug, please ask on the IRC channel, and someone will help you.

Warning

Always write your IRC nickname after each comment on this page. If your techbase username is the same as your IRC nickname, you can do this quickly by typing ~~~

[edit] Sign-in

Tell developers what you are testing with. (If you expect to upgrade between now and BugDay, put what version you are using now next to the bugs/comments that you put on this page.)

Please give distro/version or SVN branch/trunk with revision below:

Tip

Please be sure to sign every bug or comment you add to this page with your irc nickname. You can use the wiki markup ~~~ to insert your wiki username automatically (but only do this if it is the same as your IRC nickname, otherwise write your IRC nickname in by hand).

[edit] Division of Labour

(Total bugs 176)

[edit] Completed Bugs

Below lists the various sections for completed bugs. This aids everyone in double checking each other's work. In addition this allows those of us that don't have bugzilla permissions to list bugs so that the folks with the permissions can follow up.

Please note that this is an experimental layout designed to reduce the number of edit conflicts on this page. Each section is its own subpage. The best way to work with this is to enable section editing by going to "My preferences" > "editing" > "Enable section editing via [edit] links". When you click edit you will automatically edit the subpage.

[edit] Bugs still present in KDE 4

If a bug is still present in the KDE4 version of Kopete, list it here.

• bug #166053 This UI issue makes the contact list look bad. Even compared to the KDE 3 kopete, it looks ugly. Should be trivial enough to fix :) zegenie

• bug #147092 While the file itself is transfered, sandsmark kopete crashed while it finished the filetransfer from his jabber account to mine. Not really sure if this is a jabber issue or not, see bug below. brot

• bug #162760 Kopete seems to crash after finishing the filetransfer, but not always reproducable. Also, may be a genereal bug, not protocoll related sandsmark

[edit] Bugs needing more information or Awaiting Feedback

If a bug report is not clear or does not provide enough information to reproduce the bug, list it here.

• bug #135419 It's not clear to me how the user could have added contacts to create duplicate address book entries, unless this was a GUI problem that has since been fixed. kwilliam
• bug #165643 I think this is kubuntu-specific bug. There is no information on how to reproduce anyway. gkiagia
  • WORKSFORME gkiagia
• bug #155957 There is no info on how to reproduce or the circumstances under which it was initially seen, the problem could be anything... (like a simple connection problem to the msn server) gkiagia
