Oh, you mean
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1016158
Don't make us go on a goose hunt. Post the relevant details directly in
your commit message, rather than assuming that everyone else actively
follows the bug database and can correlate the two without effort. Just
because you spent >1hr hunting down the problem doesn't mean that you
should make everyone else likewise spend time because of an incomplete
report.
I just re-read what I wrote...
Email is a lousy medium for conveying emotion. I apologize for sounding
a bit too harsh, and want to thank you for taking the time to report an
issue. More importantly, thanks for posting a patch! Too many people
report issues without any further effort. Even if we end up going with
a slightly different patch, the fact that you showed initiative is a
positive thing, and I was wrong for forgetting to express appreciation,
with a net result of conveying the wrong tone in my first reply. Please
continue to contribute, and don't use my (poor) behavior as an excuse to
run away.
