Description Nikolay Sabelnikov 2022-03-07 08:50:21 CET 
The essence of my proposal is as follows, in order not to manually enter the entire package with the version, etc., it is necessary that bugzilla could search by the first typed letters herself, and the search depended on the choice of the distribution version. And also, if a package was selected, then the maintainer of this package would also be added to the cc.
Comment 1 sturmvogel 2022-03-07 09:07:56 CET 
Thats a good idea but it will probably not possible to realize.

The search function in bugzilla searches only in the bug-database. There is no underlying package-database from where you could get package recommendations if you enter a search string. The same applies for the maintainers. As bugzilla doesnt have access to any package database (which needs to be created and maintained), it's also not possible to add a maintainer automatically. On the other hand we have thousends of packages without an permanent maintainer.

It's necessary to use the search function in bugzilla if there was already a bug created. If not, you can create a new one and copy the exact applicable package name/version and maintainer from our Mageia Application Database (MADB) https://madb.mageia.org/
Comment 2 Nikolay Sabelnikov 2022-03-07 09:16:45 CET 
This is implemented by altlinux, which is one of our distributions.
Comment 3 Nikolay Sabelnikov 2022-03-10 10:09:24 CET 
There is, in principle, a possibility if bugzilla makes a request to https://madb.mageia.org/и to receive an answer and substitute the result and in the cc the address of the maintainer.
