Description Kristoffer Grundström 2017-05-06 18:07:29 CEST

Description of problem: If you don't find a fitting category to report against there's no Other or Unknown option as a temporary alternative to report against.

Steps to reproduce:

1. https://bugs.mageia.org/
2. Click on Mageia.
3. Voila! There's no option called Other or at least Unknown in the list.

I don't think such a component would help. The Mageia product has too few components for "Other" to be useful, IMO. Also, it's currently trivial enough to catch a bug in the wrong component.

Do you have a specific example of a bug which wouldn't fix the existing components?

No answer in the last two months. Closing.

Sorry for the late answer.

Well, lets say that you're new with bugreporting and can't decide what to report against (even though you know what program that missbehaves).

It would be suffice to have Other as an option.
