This weekend Debian has had a BSP focusing on fixing release critical bugs. As that wraps up, I suggest that everyone use today as a day to check over the bugs you've filed yourself.
Just go to http://bugs.debian.org/from:joeyh@debian.org, replacing my email address with yours. Some things to check:
- Are there any bugs marked
moreinfo
? Make sure the maintainer has the info they've asked for and remove the tag. - Are there any bugs marked
wontfix
? Read over them, and if you agree with the maintainer that they shouldn't be fixed, close them. - Are there any bugs marked
unreproducible
? See if you can, and come up with a recipe the maintainer can use. Or if you can't, close it. - Are there any d-i installation reports? If so, read back over them and if that issue wouldn't be a problem installing today, close the bug.
- Are there any bugs marked patch or pending for a long time? Follow up, ping the bug and make sure the maintainer hasn't forgot to upload the fix.
- Are there any bugs that have no excuse not to be fixed by now? Well, we are still in a BSP.... :-)
Even if you have reported a lot of bugs (I have 629 open :-( ), this should not take more than an hour, and is probably the absolute easiest way to close some bugs in the Debian BTS that there is.
