The bughelper suite currently contains:

./bugnumbers

This tool collects bug numbers from Launchpad. You can pass it

  • --version which will return the version number of the bughelper suite

  • -l <URL> for a Launchpad bug list URL

  • -p <package> for a source package like evolution

Examples:

   bugnumbers -p evolution
   bugnumbers -l https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gcalctool/+bugs

./bughelper

This tool searches through bugs and tries to find matches with data in .info files. It has the same functionality and switches as bugnumber. In addition to that it accepts

  • --version which will return the version number of the bughelper suite

  • -A which lets it search through all the bug attachments with the mime type text/plain.

Examples:

   bughelper -p ubiquity
   bughelper -A -l https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gcalctool/+bugs

./bugxml

This tool is primarily intended to help with the editing and creation of .info files. There are currently two use cases:

  • -a <source package> <condition> <information> adds a simple clue to an existing file or creates a new one.

  • -e <string> escapes a given string for use in XML files.

  • -v <file> validates a given file against the clue file schema.

Examples:

   bugxml -a totem "libxine.so" "This might be a xine problem. Ask the reporter to check with xine-ui."
   bugxml -v packages/ubiquity.info
   bugxml -e This string has some weird characters like ä, ü and ö in it.
