Hi Max,

this is great! The only reason we never considered setting "Bugs are tracked: somewhere else" was that everybody assumed they would become inaccessible by that.

Before we go on (it's usually better to wait for people from the actual bug team to answer, e.g. Nathan or Jonathan; Martin has a tendency of being overhasty and taking action prematurely 🙄):

Am I missing something?

Cheers
Patrick

Hi Martin,

If nobody disagrees, I will do the following (probably next weekend):

1. set Launchpad to "Bugs are tracked: somewhere else".

2. check for broken Launchpad URLs on
https://inkscape.org/develop/bug-management/
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/blob/master/Guidelines.md
https://alpha.inkscape.org/bug-migration/
and fix where required.


Best Regards,

Max


Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi all,

every once in a while, people still report bugs on the old bug
tracker
on launchpad.net. Currently, the bug tracker was left open so that
we
can still read old bugs and move them over to GitLab. With some help
from Launchpad.net support
<https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/695519> I figured
out
that we can disable bug submission there without losing access to
the
old bugs:

https://launchpad.net/inkscape/+configure-bugtracker
-> Setting: Bugs are tracked: "somewhere else".

I tried that temporarily for a few seconds, and it seems to work:

Then, the main links "Bugs" and "Report a bug" on Launchpad
disappear.
However, one can still search for bugs using the direct link to the
"advanced search":
https://bugs.launchpad.net/~inkscape.bugs/+bugs?advanced=1
Links to old bugs still work, e.g.:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/682585
