I've now completed a sweep over all the bug reports tagged with "patch",
and for the ones that I can halfway understand, I've either applied,
asked people to consider them, or closed the reports.  You know.  The
normal stuff.

I think this time period (before people start doing more sweeping
general changes) is a nice time to deal with queued-up changes, since
the patches have a greater chance of still applying somewhat cleanly.

However, most of the bug reports I can't really deal with, because
they're outside my area of not-total-and-utter-ignorance.

So `M-x debbugs-gnu RET C-a C-k RET 2339 RET C-u / patch RET s s' and
have a go.  Handling bugs is almost fun when you're working from the
`debbugs-gnu' interface.

*Almost*.

M-x debbugs-gnu-search RET RET tag RET patch RET status RET open RET

seems to work better, as it doesn't fetch several thousand reports.

But I couldn't figure out the way to specify "status" = "open", so the
returned list includes fixed reports.  Apparently, when I give
debbugs-gnu-search an empty search string, it does not accept the
"status" attribute.  Is that a bug or a limitation of the soap query?

Please add this important missing feature ASAP.

If using the web interface, what you want is to exclude bugs with
pending state = done:

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/pkgreport.cgi?include=tags%3Apatch;exclude=pending%3Adone;package=emacs

I don't know what this translates to for the soap interface.

When you give an empty query string to `debbugs-gnu-search', it falls
back to the behaviour of `debbugs-gnu', which does not allow interactive
setting of "status" yet. Maybe this attribute shall be added for
interactive query?

You could suppress showing bugs with status "done" and "forwarded" by

(add-to-list 'debbugs-gnu-default-suppress-bugs
             '(status . "done\\|forwarded"))

But this is applied client side only, when toggling the result list with
"x". Not so performant in retrieving.

Best regards, Michael.

I don't understand which missing feature you are referring to. `fun'?
That was already added to Emacs, decades ago.

I'll check, whether there is a way to express "exclude" via the soap
interface. But I'm not optimistic, I believe I've checked it already in
the past.

Best regards, Michael.
