Thanks.

Good.

In the meantime I hit a bug with LP's email interface which prevents one
to create bug report AND attach file at the same time. The problem is
that signing check fails 'cause attached-part is not signed.

I chatted with the folks at #launchpad and I'm promised that it will be
looked upon tomorrow.

The web interface allows it so let's hope the fix won't be too
difficult.

For the moment, I am doing some monkey-business and manually created bug
tickets for reports in gnumed-bugs.

However, to summarize - new code has to provide:

a) three lines

 affects gnumed
 tag automatic-report
 importance medium

b) body of the automatic report should contain some short user comments

c) subject can contain <bug> 'tag' plus some extra info

d) log file has to be gzipped and attached as *.tar.gz with e.g. 'log
file' description 'because they are otherwise too big for bug-ticket and
it's cumbersome to have such a big text in the tickets.


Shall we add a 'small blueprint' for it or it will be remembered?


Sincerely,
Gour
