Hi Roger The wiki errata page partly covers this, per release version Maybe we should discuss how much to list there CC:

fri Roger's initial comment about different users seeing the same problem, but with different descriptions, is something BugSuad tries to catch: DUPLICATES. Let us discuss this on the bugsquad mailList. If we enhanced the ERRATA page to include common problems which are either not actually bugs, or are still-open bugs; or had a separate page for them, it would need a link from the main Bugzilla page; and I have a feeling that is inviolate. It is also true that we close some bugs where a workaround/user correction is found, and it would be nice if these problems+solutions could be consulted easily. FWIW this link shows the most duplicated bugs (nearly all are closed, the white rows are still open): https://bugs.mageia.org/duplicates.cgi CC:

(none) (In reply to Lewis Smith from comment #2) > FWIW this link shows the most duplicated bugs (nearly all are closed, the > white rows are still open): https://bugs.mageia.org/duplicates.cgi Duplicates are indeed listed there. Common problems are listed in the errata. It's the user's job to first look at existing bugs before reporting a new one. The expert form already does this. The guided form doesn't. Maybe it should, see bug 6340. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 6340 *** Resolution:
