Bug statuses in Launchpad

Want to know more about bug expiry? See our article BugExpiry.

Anyone can set the status of a bug in Launchpad, making it easy for them to become involved in your project's bug triage.

Launchpad's Bug Tracker offers you seven main bug statuses that reflect each stage of a bug's lifecycle from initial report to resolution.

Optionally, if your project has a high number of bug reports, you may want to add an extra layer of quality control to your bug triage. Two additional bug statuses - Triaged and Won't Fix - are available only to members of your project's Bug Contact team and the project's owners.

Available to everyone

  • New: the bug is newly reported.

  • Incomplete: the bug report is incomplete and needs more information before it can be triaged.

  • Invalid: the report describes the software's normal behaviour, or is unsuitable for any other reason.

  • Confirmed: a member of the community believes that this report describes a genuine bug in enough detail that a developer could start work on a fix.

  • In Progress: a developer has taken responsibility to fix the bug and has begun work.

  • Fix Committed: a developer has committed his/her fix to the project's codebase.

  • Fix Released: a new version of the software, featuring the bug fix, has been released.

Only available to the Bug Contact

  • Triaged: a member of the Bug Contact team considers that the bug report contains all information a developer needs to start work on a fix.

  • Won't Fix: this is acknowledged as a genuine bug but the project has no plans to fix it.

Translating the status of external bug watches

Bugs in free software projects are often tracked in more than one place. For example: a bug in OpenOffice.org may be tracked in Launchpad by Ubuntu's OpenOffice.org team and in OpenOffice.org's own Bugzilla instance.

Launchpad can track the status of the bug in OpenOffice.org's external tracker and display its current status on the Ubuntu team's bug report.

Bugzilla and Launchpad use different statuses to describe the stages of a bug's lifecycle. It could quickly become confusing to use two different sets of bug statuses on the same page. Instead, Launchpad translates the status of the external bug report.

Some projects use custom Bugzilla status messages. Soon, we will add tables to show how those statuses are translated by Launchpad.
