If you encounter a bug that reports a crash or an assert but is not set to crash, set it to crash. If you encounter a bug that reports dataloss when loading a saved file, set it to critical. Those reports need to be weeded out, and the status set to INVALID. However, we also get many reports that are not bugs and not wishes: reports that are basically users asking for help because they do not understand Krita or their computer, or what a file is, or that Krita isn’t the same application as Photoshop. The rest are bugs, that is, problems in Krita that can be fixed by changing Krita’s code. A wish bug is a bug that asks whether some functionality can be added to Krita, or complains that some functionality is missing. The main difference is between Wish and the rest: Wishes are feature requests, and don’t need immediate triaging. It’s a bug, but it’s kinda unimportant Wish: The bug is about a crash or an assert Normal: Shouldn’t be used, it doesn’t mean a thing Major: Example: a saved file cannot be opened in Krita Grave: There are the following Importances: Critical: Please do not change the importance back. I am sorry, but the importance field is a tool for the developers to work with. Set text (ask for what you think is needed): Depending on the report, the steps to reproduce might need to be described more clearly and/or a screenshot, a screen recording or the original files might be necessary. If there is not enough information, ask for more information. If you cannot reproduce, the user either has not given enough information or the bug is specific to their system. If you couldn’t, it’s a regression, so add the regression keyword to the keywords and mark which version of Krita the latest was that did not have the bug. If you can reproduce the bug, and want to go the extra mile, use an older version of Krita to see whether you could reproduce it there as well. Set the bug status to CONFIRMED and add the triaged keyword to the keywords. If you can reproduce the bug, add a comment indicating you can reproduce it, maybe with clearer steps to reproduce and anything pertinent that you observed. You can find the version in Help/About Krita. Please select the version of Krita you are using. If the user has not entered the Platform correctly (i.e., it is “unspecified/Linux”), then ask which platform they are using. When triaging, only UNCONFIRMED bugs are still relevant. I cannot paint at all, in a particular documentĪ bug begins as UNCONFIRMED. This document gives some simple guidelines to get started, and some common cases that can often be answered with a standard text.Ĭanned Answers and Recognizing Common Reports The Krita developers cannot handle that stream on their own! Please consider helping out by triaging bugs. There are over 1000 bugs and 350 wishes reported against Krita per year, and that number is rising.
