So... you are an experienced Gentoo bug-wrangler. Think how much time you've spent requesting that people send in simple information along with their eBuild related bug-reports? For instance how many times a day do you remind people to send an "emerge info" dump? What if most of this could be automated: Consider the following: * Mr n00b files a bug report "e.g. <packagename> does not build with +foo and -baz", but fails to send any more information. * Wrangler thinks "If <packagename> is really broken with the +foo option then we are in trouble, but sadly n00b has not provided enough information for me to re-create the fault". * Wrangler requests n00b to do an auto-bug report. * N00b types in: emerge -uD --autobugrepport <bugzillaid>,<username>,<password> <packagename>, causing emerge to attempt to build the package again. If the compile fails, all stdout, stderr messges plus the output of emerge info are appended to a report that is automatically uploaded to the bugzilla server. * Wrangler has all the info he requested, and is now able to investigate the fault.
