Subject: Status of TODO remove obsolete bug-reporting commando
Date: Sun, 26 May 2019 18:30:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADwFkm=d1TGMgLFWob0Ug8sq_c1pPxg7En_HTFLuhwHSOLNbXQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1570 bytes --]
I've been looking into the following TODO:
> ** Check for any included packages that define obsolete bug-reporting
commands.
> Change them to use report-emacs-bug.
> *** Related functions:
> **** gnus-bug
> **** report-calc-bug
> **** org-submit-bug-report
> **** lm-report-bug
> **** tramp-bug
> **** c-submit-bug-report
> [Do all of them need changing?]
The final question leaves the prospective contributor in some doubt. I
think the first step is to clarify what it is that should be done.
First: Do all of them need changing? If yes, should we remove that
question in etc/TODO ? If no, which ones are can we be sure that we
want to keep? And which ones can we be sure that we want to remove?
I was able to find the following commands that are *not* mentioned in
the TODO:
- artist-submit-bug-report
- ediff-submit-report
- ps-mode-submit-bug-report
- reftex-report-bug
- vera-submit-bug-report
- verilog-submit-bug-report
- vhdl-submit-bug-report
- viper-submit-report [obsolete package]
Should we also add them to the TODO, or is there a reason that they
have not been included?
Finally, the attached patch contains cleanups of things that already
seems to be removed, for example the `report-calc-bug' command that
has already been removed.

After having written the above message, I found this previous
discussion from 2008:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-02/msg02740.html
This made me even more unsure as to what the current status is.
Is this TODO still applicable, and if so to what extent?
Thanks,
Stefan Kangas
