Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 433918
Using koji build id's as task id's gives very confusing error messages
Last modified: 2013-01-09 20:48:20 EST
Description of problem: If you give a buildid to koji instead of a taskid, koji doesn't give a very helpful response saying roughly (for resubmit): <class 'koji.GenericError'>: only canceled or failed tasks may be resubmitted ...if it instead said something about the task (builder, submitted data, package) of the given taskid, that might clue you into the fact you were giving it a buildid by accident.
Filed upstream as https://fedorahosted.org/koji/ticket/97
resubmit will now print out the task info of what it's about to resubmit. To avoid the delay in looking this up I added a --quiet flag which will suppress the lookup and print out.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
As this bug is in MODIFIED, Fedora believes that a fix has been committed that resolves the problem listed in this bug report. If this is not the case, please re-open this report, noting the version of the package that you reproduced the bug against. Thanks for the report!
