Did you set it up on a Gentoo machine. I just couldn't get it working on my Gentoo (RC4) system, and I spent a couple of errors on it. Might have been RC4 issues or my lack of Python-knowledge. > Given my past experiences with gnats, rt, debbugs, and bugzilla, > I'd say bugzilla is *way* too complex for people to use effectively, > and has perhaps the most horrid interface I've ever experienced. > debbugs was the easiest, and the little bit that I've used roundup > makes me feel fairly comfortable in recommending it. As said before, this is the _default_ interface too bugzilla which we have no intention of using (at least not for endusers). Bugzilla is complex before it's _very_ powerful. But I agree, the default interface is too complex for endusers even though most people have no problems adding a new bug. The complexety is when trying to find if a bug is already in there.=20 =20 > In summary, usability is far and away the most important thing > in a bug tracking/issue tracking system, and a objective analysis > is probably in order. This is very true while talking about endusers. When talking about developers I think the most important thing is that it can handle all the things we need to work effectivly. I also think none of the Gentoo developers will have problems learning Bugzilla if they set there mind to it.
