Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: wishlist
I think a generic way to allow people (inc those not in the QA group) to
add QA report links to each package with issues that QA report covers.
I think a mail bot is the way to implement this, some ideas on that:
To: pts-report@qa.d.o
new broken-shlibs-local http://people.debian.org/~kibi/broken-shlibs-local.yaml
remove foopkg from broken-shlibs-local
add foopkg to broken-shlibs-local
sync broken-shlibs-local
delete broken-shlibs-local
thanks
The YAML (or XML) file could look something like this:
title: Broken shlibs.local
about-url: http://people.debian.org/~kibi/broken-shlibs-local.html
update-frequency: weekly
contact: kibi@debian.org
packages:
- name: foo
url: http://people.debian.org/~kibi/broken-shlibs-local/f/foo.html
title: 5 issues
The mail bot could regularly mail the contact address whenever the PTS'
list of packages for that report are out of sync with the list of
package names in the YAML file (to motivate them to fix the report).
The PTS could put "Broken shlibs.local (5 issues)" in the right column
in the other links section.
DDPO could use the same data and add a column containing just the name
of each report the package is listed in.
Inspired by yet another dd-list report about another QA issue:
