624522 - Allow "See Also" to accept URLs pointing to the sourceforge.net bug tracker

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Creating/Changing Bugs, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Christian Krause]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101209 Fedora/3.6.13-1.fc13 Firefox/3.6.13
Build Identifier: 3.4.8+, 3.6.3

It is not possible to add sourceforge.net bug tracker URLs to bugzilla bug reports (via "Add Bug URLs").


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to add an external bug URL via "Add Bug URLs" from sf.net, e.g. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2284386&group_id=976&atid=100976

Actual Results:  
bugzilla 3.4.8+, as used by bugzilla.gnome.org reports:

"https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2284386&group_id=976&atid=100976 is not a valid URL to a bug. Bug URLs should point to show_bug.cgi in a Bugzilla installation."

According to the bugzilla sources for 3.6.3 sf.net URLs wouldn't be accepted either with this new version.

Expected Results:  
- it should be possible to add external bug tracker URLs to bugzilla bug reports
- since this feature is IMHO explicitely designed to be used with external bug
URLs, bugzilla should make no assumptions about the format of the URL (or at least only few essential ;-) )

There is another bug where I describe why we validate the URLs, and there are lots of good reasons to do it.

However, we can add SourceForge support. On trunk, it's not even that hard to add new trackers.

Ah, make sure "func" is actually "detail".

Thanks for implementing the sf.net bug tracker URL support.

What will be the first bugzilla release containing the support?

  Hey Christian. You can see that information in the "Target Milestone" field.
