getting bugzilla access for my account

2016-01-02 Thread Mike Frysinger
seeing as how i have commit access to the gcc tree, could i have
my bugzilla privs extended as well ?  atm i only have normal ones
which means i only get to edit my own bugs ... can't dupe/update
other ones people have filed.  couldn't seem to find docs for how
to request this, so spamming this list.

my account on gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla is "vap...@gentoo.org".

Just log in with your gcc email address...

Permissions are automatic for @gcc addresses, you should create a new 
account with that one (you can make it follow the old account, etc).

Not fundamental problems in the standard, just with the implementation
of that header. It won't work as is and would need changes, but I
don't think doing it that way is the right fix for GNU/Linux anyway.
If we fix it in glibc we don't need that header.

Is that a question? :-)

The point is just it's a known bug, not that Bugzilla contains all the
background.

Yup.

i completely forgot i had that e-mail address :).  i thought i remembered
seeing people make changes w/out @gcc.gnu.org accounts, but perhaps i'm
misremembering.  i updated my existing account to use the @gcc.gnu.org
e-mail and seems to be working.  thanks for the clue bat !

Bug reporters can make certain changes to their own bugs without a
gcc.gnu.org address.
