This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '11'. 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 11'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 11 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
python-bugzilla-0.5.1-3.fc12.noarch is still tracebacking on reproducer from c#0.
Confirmed in python-bugzilla-0.6.1 as well. I'm going to use this bug for testing, so please excuse any extra noise/bugmail.
It looks like the CLI was fixed to change the field name for devel_whiteboard, but not qa_whiteboard. For example, try: bugzilla query -p "Fedora" -c "python-bugzilla" --devel_whiteboard=devel which should give you this bug. On the other hand: bugzilla query -p "Fedora" -c "python-bugzilla" --qa_whiteboard=QA will give you an XMLRPC fault (and traceback in python-bugzilla-0.5.x). It's a pretty easy fix; I'll commit it to git and it'll appear in the next python-bugzilla release. In the meantime, you can work around this by doing (e.g.) bugzilla query -p "Fedora" -c "python-bugzilla" --boolean_query='cf_qa_whiteboard-substring-QA' Check the manpage for more info about the --boolean_query command.
What a coincidence! That boolean_query workaround is exactly what I need for the problem I'm working on at this very moment. You've just made my day, Will! Thank you (and thanks to you too, bug zapper, for bringing this bug to my attention :)).

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
