Checkin for 2.14 release. Still some problems; this cannot yet
be used for 2.14 documentation due to inconsistencies.

- Things fixed this release: Elaborated on queryhelp interface, added FAQ regarding
- moving bugs from one keyword to another, clarified possible problems with the Landfill
- tutorial, fixed a boatload of typos and unclear sentence structures. Incorporated the
- README into the UNIX installation section, and changed the README to indicate the deprecated
- status. Things I know need work: Used "simplelist" a lot, where I should have used
- "procedure" to tag things. Need to lowercase all tags to be XML compliant.

+ This is the documentation for Bugzilla, the Mozilla
+ bug-tracking system.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Bugzilla is an enterprise-class set of software utilities
+ that, when used together, power issue-tracking for hundreds of
+ organizations around the world, tracking millions of bugs.
+ While it is easy to use and quite flexible, it is very
+ difficult for a novice to install and maintain. Although we
+ have provided step-by-step directions, Bugzilla is not always
+ easy to get working. Please be sure the person responsible
+ for installing and maintaining this software is a qualified
+ professional on operating system upon which you install
+ Bugzilla.

- This document was started on September 17, 2000

- which I left untouched for nearly half a year.

- Despite the lack of updates, Bugzilla is simply the best piece of bug-tracking software

- </PARA>
- <PARA>
- This release of the Bugzilla Guide is the <EMPHASIS>2.11</EMPHASIS> release.
- It is so named that it may match the current version of Bugzilla.
- The numbering tradition stems from that used for many free software projects,
- in which <EMPHASIS>even-numbered</EMPHASIS> point releases (1.2, 1.14, etc.)
- are considered "stable releases", intended for public consumption; on the other
- hand, <EMPHASIS>odd-numbered</EMPHASIS> point releases (1.3, 2.09, etc.)
- are considered unstable <EMPHASIS>development</EMPHASIS> releases intended
- for advanced users, systems administrators, developers, and those who enjoy
- a lot of pain.
- </PARA>
- <PARA>
- Newer revisions of the Bugzilla Guide will follow the numbering conventions of
- the main-tree Bugzilla releases, available at
- <ULINK URL="http://www.mozilla.org/bugs/source.html">Mozilla.org</ULINK>, with
- the exception that intermediate releases will have a minor revision number
- following a period. For instance, if the current version of Bugzilla is 4.2,
- the current "stable" version of the Bugzilla guide, in, say, it's fifth revision,
- would be numbered "4.2.5". Got it? Good.

- <EXAMPLE>
- <TITLE>When to Use Group Security</TITLE>
- <INFORMALEXAMPLE>
- <PARA>
- Many Bugzilla sites isolate "Security-related" bugs from all other bugs.
- This way, they can have a fix ready before the security vulnerability
- is announced to the world. You can create a "Security" product which, by
- default, has no members, and only add members to the group (in their individual
- User page, as described under User Administration) who should have
- priveleged access to "Security" bugs. Alternately, you may create a Group
- independently of any Product, and change the Group mask on individual bugs
- to restrict access to members only of certain Groups.
- </PARA>
- </INFORMALEXAMPLE>
- </EXAMPLE>
-
- Groups only work if you enable the "usebuggroups" paramater.
- In addition, if the "usebuggroupsentry" parameter is "On", one can restrict access
- to products by groups, so that only members of a product group are able to view
- bugs within that product.
- Group security in Bugzilla can be divided into two categories:
- Generic and Product-Based.
- </PARA>
- <NOTE>
- <PARA>
- Groups in Bugzilla are a complicated beast that evolved out of very simple user
- permission bitmasks, apparently itself derived from common concepts in UNIX access
- controls. A "bitmask" is a fixed-length number whose value can describe one, and
- only one, set of states. For instance, UNIX file permissions are assigned bitmask
- values: "execute" has a value of 1, "write" has a value of 2,
- and "read" has a value of 4. Add them together,
- and a file can be read, written to, and executed if it has a bitmask of "7". (This
- is a simplified example -- anybody who knows UNIX security knows there is much
- more to it than this. Please bear with me for the purpose of this note.) The only
- way a bitmask scheme can work is by doubling the bit count for each value. Thus
- if UNIX wanted to offer another file permission, the next would have to be a value of
- 8, then the next 16, the next 32, etc.
- </PARA>
- <PARA>
- Similarly, Bugzilla offers a bitmask to define group permissions, with an internal
- limit of 64. Several are already occupied
- by built-in permissions. The way around this limitation is
- to avoid assigning groups to products if you have many products, avoid bloating
- of group lists, and religiously prune irrelevant groups. In reality, most installations
- of Bugzilla support far fewer than 64 groups, so this limitation has not hit
- for most sites, but it is on the table to be revised for Bugzilla 3.0
- because it interferes with the security schemes of some administrators.

-
- This information comes straight from my life. I was forced to learn how
-Bugzilla organizes database because of nitpicky requests from users for tiny
-changes in wording, rather than having people re-educate themselves or
-figure out how to work our procedures around the tool. It sucks, but it can
-and will happen to you, so learn how the schema works and deal with it when it
-comes.
-
- I'm sorry this version is plain text. I can whip this info out a lot faster
-if I'm not concerned about complex formatting. I'll get it into sgml for easy
-portability as time permits.
-
- The Bugzilla Database Schema has a home! In addition to availability via CVS
-and released versions 2.12 and higher of Bugzilla, you can find the latest &
-greatest version of the Bugzilla Database Schema at
-http://www.trilobyte.net/barnsons/. This is a living document; please be sure
-you are up-to-date with the latest version before mirroring.
-
- The Bugzilla Database Schema is designed to provide vital information
-regarding the structure of the MySQL database. Where appropriate, this
-document will refer to URLs rather than including documents in their entirety
-to ensure completeness even should this paper become out of date.
-
- This document is not maintained by Netscape or Netscape employees, so please

-INTRODUCTION
-===
-
-
-
- So, here you are with your brand-new installation of Bugzilla. You've got
-MySQL set up, Apache working right, Perl DBI and DBD talking to the database
-flawlessly. Maybe you've even entered a few test bugs to make sure email's
-working; people seem to be notified of new bugs and changes, and you can
-enter and edit bugs to your heart's content. Perhaps you've gone through the
-trouble of setting up a gateway for people to submit bugs to your database via
-email, have had a few people test it, and received rave reviews from your beta
-testers.
-
- What's the next thing you do? Outline a training strategy for your
-development team, of course, and bring them up to speed on the new tool you've
-labored over for hours.
-
- Your first training session starts off very well! You have a captive
-audience which seems enraptured by the efficiency embodied in this thing called
-"Bugzilla". You are caught up describing the nifty features, how people can
-save favorite queries in the database, set them up as headers and footers on
-their pages, customize their layouts, generate reports, track status with
-greater efficiency than ever before, leap tall buildings with a single bound
-and rescue Jane from the clutches of Certain Death!
-
- But Certain Death speaks up -- a tiny voice, from the dark corners of the
-conference room. "I have a concern," the voice hisses from the darkness,
-"about the use of the word 'verified'.
-
- The room, previously filled with happy chatter, lapses into reverential
-silence as Certain Death (better known as the Vice President of Software
-Engineering) continues. "You see, for two years we've used the word 'verified'
-to indicate that a developer or quality assurance engineer has confirmed that,
-in fact, a bug is valid. I don't want to lose two years of training to a
-new software product. You need to change the bug status of 'verified' to
-'approved' as soon as possible. To avoid confusion, of course."
-
- Oh no! Terror strikes your heart, as you find yourself mumbling "yes, yes, I
-don't think that would be a problem," You review the changes with Certain
-Death, and continue to jabber on, "no, it's not too big a change. I mean, we
-have the source code, right? You know, 'Use the Source, Luke' and all that...
-no problem," All the while you quiver inside like a beached jellyfish bubbling,
-burbling, and boiling on a hot Jamaican sand dune...
-
- Thus begins your adventure into the heart of Bugzilla. You've been forced
-to learn about non-portable enum() fields, varchar columns, and tinyint
-definitions. The Adventure Awaits You!
-
-
-
-===
-The Basics
-===
-
- If you were like me, at this point you're totally clueless about the
-internals of MySQL, and if it weren't for this executive order from the Vice
-President you couldn't care less about the difference between a "bigint" and a
-"tinyint" entry in MySQL. I'd refer you first to the MySQL documentation,
-available at http://www.mysql.com/doc.html, but that's mostly a confusing
-morass of high-level database jargon. Here are the basics you need to know
-about the database to proceed:
-
-1. To connect to your database, type "mysql -u root" at the command prompt as
-any user. If this works without asking you for a password, SHAME ON YOU! You
-should have locked your security down like the README told you to. You can
-find details on locking down your database in the Bugzilla FAQ in this
-directory (under "Security"), or more robust security generalities in the
-MySQL searchable documentation at
-http://www.mysql.com/php/manual.php3?section=Privilege_system .
-
-2. You should now be at a prompt that looks like this:
-
-mysql>
-
- At the prompt, if "bugs" is the name of your Bugzilla database, type:
-
-mysql> use bugs;

-all the way through this documentation)
- Young Grasshopper, you are now ready for the unveiling of the Bugzilla
-database, in the next section...
-
-
-
-===
-THE TABLES
-===
-
- Imagine your MySQL database as a series of spreadsheets, and you won't be too
-far off. If you use this command:
-
-mysql> show tables from bugs;
-
- you'll be able to see all the "spreadsheets" (tables) in your database. Cool,
-huh? It's kinda' like a filesystem, only much faster and more robust. Come
-on, I'll show you more!
-
- From the command issued above, you should now have some output that looks
-like this:

+ serves as a decent introduction and troubleshooting document

- <TITLE>Cleaning up after mucking with Bugzilla</TITLE>
- <LITERALLAYOUT>
-Contributed by Eric Hanson:
-There are several things, and one trick. There is a small tiny piece of
-documentation I saw once that said something very important.
-1) After pretty much any manual working of the Mysql db, you must
-delete a file in the bugzilla directory: data/versioncache
-Versioncache basically is a way to speed up bugzilla (from what I
-understand). It stores a lot of commonly used information. However,
-this file is refreshed every so often (I can't remember the time
-interval though). So eventually all changes do propogate out, so you
-may see stuff suddenly working.
-2) Assuming that failed, you will also have to check something with the
-checksetup.pl file. It actually is run twice. The first time it
-creates the file: localconfig. You can modify localconfig, (or not if
-you are doing bug_status stuff) or you should delete localconfig and
-rerun your modified checksetup.pl. Since I don't actually see anything
-in localconfig pertaining to bug_status, this point is mainly a FYI.

- 3. Install the Windows GNU tools from Cygwin. Make sure to add the bin

- they decide to use Bugzilla or not. :-) )
- 4. Download relevant packages from ActiveState at
- http://www.activestate.com/packages/zips/. + DBD-Mysql.zip
- 5. Extract each zip file with WinZip, and install each ppd file using the
- notation: ppm install &lt;module&gt;.ppd
- 6. Install Mysql. *Note: If you move the default install from c:\mysql,
- you must add the appropriate startup parameters to the NT service. (ex.
- -b e:\\programs\\mysql)
- 7. Download any Mysql client. http://www.mysql.com/download_win.html
- 8. Setup MySql. (These are the commands that I used.)
-
- I. Cleanup default database settings.
- C:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root mysql
- mysql> DELETE FROM user WHERE Host='localhost' AND User='';
- mysql> quit
- C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin reload
-
- II. Set password for root.
- C:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root mysql
- mysql> UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('new_password')
- WHERE user='root';
- mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
- mysql> quit
- C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root reload
-
- III. Create bugs user.
- C:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root -p
- mysql> insert into user (host,user,password)
- values('localhost','bugs','');
- mysql> quit
- C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root reload
-
- IV. Create the bugs database.
- C:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root -p
- mysql> create database bugs;
-
- V. Give the bugs user access to the bugs database.
- mysql> insert into db
- (host,db,user,select_priv,insert_priv,update_priv,delete_priv,create_priv,drop_priv)
- values('localhost','bugs','bugs','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','N')
- mysql> quit
- C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root reload
- 9. Run the table scripts to setup the bugs database.
- 10. Change CGI.pm to use the following regular expression because of
- differing backslashes in NT versus UNIX.
- o $0 =~ m:[^\\]*$:;
- 11. Had to make the crypt password = plain text password in the database.
- (Thanks to Andrew Lahser" &lt;andrew_lahser@merck.com&gt;" on this one.) The
- files that I changed were:
- o globals.pl
- o CGI.pl
- o alternately, you can try commenting all references to 'crypt'
- string and replace them with similar lines but without encrypt()
- or crypr() functions insida all files.
- 12. Replaced sendmail with Windmail. Basically, you have to come up with a
- sendmail substitute for NT. Someone said that they used a Perl module
- (Net::SMTP), but I was trying to save time and do as little Perl coding
- as possible.
- 13. Added "perl" to the beginning of all Perl system calls that use a perl
- script as an argument and renamed processmail to processmail.pl.
- 14. In processmail.pl, I added binmode(HANDLE) before all read() calls. I'm
- not sure about this one, but the read() under NT wasn't counting the
- EOLs without the binary read."

Had to make the crypt password = plain text password in the database. (Thanks to Andrew Lahser" &lt;andrew_lahser@merck.com&gt;" on this one.) The files that I changed were: o globals.pl o CGI.pl o alternately, you can try commenting all references to 'crypt' string and replace them with similar lines but without encrypt() or crypr() functions insida all files. 12. Replaced sendmail with Windmail. Basically, you have to come up with a sendmail substitute for NT. Someone said that they used a Perl module (Net::SMTP), but I was trying to save time and do as little Perl coding as possible. 13. Added "perl" to the beginning of all Perl system calls that use a perl script as an argument and renamed processmail to processmail.pl. 14. In processmail.pl, I added binmode(HANDLE) before all read() calls. I'm not sure about this one, but the read() under NT wasn't counting the EOLs without the binary read." </literallayout>

- <title>Reducing Spam</title>
- <para><literallayout>
-Those who use Bugzilla frequently are probably used to notification spam
-- unwanted or unnecessary notifications. A number of proposals have
-been put forward to attempt to reduce this.
-
-1. Reduce CC Spam
-
-Some of you probably know me as that guy who CCs on heaps and heaps of
-bugs. Just as you get a lot of CC changes from me, so do I get a lot
-from others. Why should CC changes send out email notifications?
-
-It's not necessarily the best idea to just remove the CC spam, there are
-other issues too, like the difficulty of adding to large CC fields.
-
-For these reasons and more, an RFE for a per user "BCC" facility exists
-that people could use to silently and privately track bugs, in a similar
-way to voting today, but applying to an unlimited number of bugs. See
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7345".
-
-2. Bulk Changes
-
-You know the drill - a large milestone change, a component movement,
-whatever, and lots of notifications are generated. If there's enough
-maybe you'll just go delete, delete, delete, whoops, there goes another
-notification that wasn't from the bulk change you missed.
-
-Shouldn't bulk changes send out one notification? A proposal for this
-is at "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26943".
-
-3. Configurable Notification Criteria
-
-It would be good if you could choose what you want to receive. There
-are two parts to this.
-
-(a) Choose a selection of bugs you're interested in. This would be
-similar to CC except you let the set be computed from selection criteria
-rather than limited to the bugs your name is on. There is currently a
-limited version of this in the bugzilla preferences, ie "all qualifying
-bugs"/"all qualifying bugs except the ones I change"/"only those bugs
-which I am listed on the cc line".
-(b) Choose what changes will trigger a notification for the bugs you are
-watching. With this, you could choose whether you want to receive cc,
-dependency and keyword changes, for example.
-
-Both of these proposals live at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14137".
-Note that they also live at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17464", and the change
-has been checked in. This is fixed with Bugzilla 2.12 and is no longer
-an issue. Woo-Hoo!

- <section id="searching">
- <title>Better Searching</title>
- <para><literallayout>
-Current searching tools in Bugzilla include the querying mechanism,
-special summary reports and dependency trees. This message is about new
-facilities.
-
-1. General Summary Reports
-
-For some time now it has been apparent to me that the query bug list
-leaves a little to be desired in its linear nature. There is a need to
-have categorised subsets, and counts of each category. If you don't
-believe me, how about these facilities already in place or which people
-have asked for:
-
-Most Doomed Reports - Categorised On Assignee, Shows and Counts Number
-of Bugs For Each Assignee
-Bug #15806 (Most Voted For Bugs) - Categorised On Product, Shows Bugs
-Voters Most Want Fixed
-Bug #9789 (BugAThon Tracking Page) - Categorised On Developer (Subset),
-Counts Number of Bugs
-Bug #9409 and #9411 - The desire to be able to report on more subsets.
-
-Hopefully you can see the gist of what is desired here. It's a general
-reporting mechanism.
-
-This mechanism lets you choose the subset of bugs to operate on (like
-query), let's you categorise them, possibly along with subcategories and
-counts the number of bugs within each category. It might or might not
-show the actual bugs themselves, and it might limit the number of bugs
-within a category, or categories to report on.
-
-I'm further sure that many applications of this mechanism would only be
-recognised once it was implemented.
-
-The general summary reports bug is at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12282".
-
-2. Related Bugs
-
-It would be nice to have a field where you could enter other bugs
-related to the current bug - it would be handy for navigation and
-possibly even finding duplicates. See
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12286".
-
-3. Column Specification Support
-
-Currently query seems to get what columns to report on from whatever the
-user last used. This doesn't work well for "prepackaged queries", where
-you followed a link. You can probably add a column by specifying a sort
-column, but this is difficult and suboptimal.
-
-Furthermore, I find that when I want to add a column to a query, it's
-usually a one off and I would prefer it to go away for the next query.
-Hence, it would be nice to specify the columns that appear on the query
-(and general summary report) pages. The default query mechanism should
-be able to let you specify your default columns.
-
-This proposal lives at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12284".

- <section id="trackingbugs">
- <title>Description Flags and Tracking Bugs</title>
- <para><literallayout>
-Since I last posted on this issue, we now have "keywords" that solve
-many of the issues of description and status whiteboard keywords. We
-have seen a migration towards keywords, but there is still further to
-go.
-
-Description ( + Status Whiteboard ) Keywords
---------------------------------------------
-
-Some description keywords remain. I'd like to hear what reasons, other
-than time, there are for these staying as they are. I'm suspecting many
-are not really being used. Hopefully we can totally remove these
-eventually.
-
-Tracking Bugs
--------------
-
-When I suggested keywords, I did so to get rid of tracking bugs too,
-though we've had less success on that front.
-
-There are many disadvantages to tracking bugs.
-
-- They can pollute bugs counts, and you must make sure you exclude
-them. I believe the meta keyword might be used for this purpose.
-- They have an assignee but there is nothing to fix, and that person can
-get whined at by Bugzilla.
-- It would be better to craft your own "dependency tree" rather than
-rely on a fixed hierachy in the bug system.
-- In creating a nice little hierachy, many bugs duplicate information
-that should be available in other ways, eg
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12833" which is
-about beta 1 networking issues. These could fall behind the actual
-data. What tracking bugs are good for, ad hoc lists, is what keywords
-are better for.
-- An automatically generated dependency structure between one "tracking
-bug" and another would be better than a manual one, since it gives exact
-rather than manually set up classifications.
-
-Probably the only feature preventing tracking bugs being replaced is the
-dependency tree. The quintessential tracking bug seems to be bug #7229
-"chofmann's watch list", which probably has about a couple of hundred
-bugs at various levels, which allows a nice visualisation.
-
-Before keywords can replace tracking bugs better visualisation is going
-to be required. General summary reports and dependency forests of a bug
-list ("http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12992") could both
-help, but neither solves the problem totally. Perhaps keywords within
-keywords would help here. In any case, I'm still thinking about this
-one.
-
-Some tracking bugs could definitely be turned into keywords immediately
-though, and I'll point the finger at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7954" here since that's
-what came to mind first.

- <title>Bug Issues</title>
- <para><literallayout>
-1. Inline Bug Changes
-
-Why do I see so many "moving to M5" and "reassigning to blahblah"
-messages, and in other circumstances none are entered? Why aren't these
-automatically generated? A comment should be only necessary when there
-is something to add, and if I'm not interested in this sort of
-information, I should be able to hide it.
-
-At the moment we're in a hybrid world where we don't get everything, but
-we can't get rid of the bug change "messages" either. Furthermore,
-"View Bug Activity" requires me to manually cross reference events on
-another page, rather than being able to visually see the chronological
-order. Shouldn't I be able to see all the information on one page?
-
-A proposal to allow bugs to be shown either way is at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11368".
-
-2. Hard Wrapping Comments
-
-One thing that annoys me is the fact that comments are "hard wrapped" to
-a certain column width. This is a mistake Internet Mail and News has
-made, unlike every word processor in existence, and as a consequence,
-Usenet suffers to this day from bad software. Why has Bugzilla repeated
-the problem?
-
-Hard wrapping to a certain column width is open to abuse (see old
-Mozilla browsers that didn't wrap properly, resulting in many ugly bug
-reports we have to read to this day), and furthermore doesn't expand to
-fill greater screen sizes. I'm also under the impression the current
-hard wrap uses a non-standard HTML facility. See
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11901".
-
-3. REMIND and LATER Are Evil
-
-I really hate REMIND and LATER. Not because they mean something
-won't be implemented, but because they aren't the best solutions.
-
-Why are they bad? Well, basically because they are not resolved, yet
-they are marked as such. Hence queries have to be well crafted to
-include them.
-
-LATER, according to Bugzilla, means it won't be done this release.
-There is a better mechanism of doing this, that is assigning to
-nobody@mozilla.org and making the milestone blank. It's more likely to
-appear in a casual query, and it doesn't resolve the bug.
-
-REMIND, according to Bugzilla, means it might still be implemented this
-release. Well, why not just move it to a later milestone then? You're
-a lot less likely to forget it. If it's really needed, a keyword would
-be better.
-
-Some people can't use blank milestones to mean an untargetted milestone,
-since they use this to assess new bugs that have no target. Hence, it
-would be nice to distinguish between bugs that have not yet been
-considered, and those that really are not assigned to any milestone in
-the future (assumedly beyond).
-
-All this is covered at
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13534".
-
-4. Create An Enhancement Field
-
-Currently enhancement is an option in severity. This means that
-important enhancements (like for example, POP3 support) are not properly
-distinguished as such, because they need a proper severity. This
-dilutes the meaning of enhancement.
-
-If enhancement was separated, we could properly see what was an
-enhancement. See "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9412". I
-see keywords like [RFE] and [FEATURE] that seem to be compensating for
-this problem.

-Bugzilla could be more proactive in detecting suboptimal situations and
-prevent them or whine about them.
-
-1. Bugzilla Crime #1: Marking A Bug Fixed With Unresolved Dependencies
-
-It can't be marked fixed with unresolved dependencies. Either mark it
-INVALID (tracking bugs), fix the dependencies at the same time, or
-resolve the blockers.
-
-See "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24496".
-
-2. Keyword Restrictions
-
-Some keywords should only apply in certain circumstances, eg beta1 =>
-Milestone <
-M14, css1 => Component = Style System are possibilities. See
-"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26940".
-
-3. Whine About Old Votes
-
-Old votes can just sit on resolved bugs. This is problematic with
-duplicates especially. Automatic transferral/removal is not
-appropriate since bugs can be reopened, but a whining solution might
-work. See "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27553".
-
-4. Whine And Warn About Milestone Mismatches
-
-Here's a fun one. Bug X (M17) depends on Bug Y (M15). Bug Y gets moved
-out to M19. The notification to the assignee of Bug X gets ignored (of
-course) and Bug X is now due to be fixed before one of its blockers.
-
-Warnings about this when it is detected as well as whining about it in
-email would help bring these issues to the attention of people sooner.
-
-Note that this would be less of a problem if we didn't have so many
-tracking bugs since they aren't updated that often and often have this
-problem.
-
-See "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16743".

- <TITLE>Installing MySQL Database</TITLE>
- <PARA>
- Visit MySQL homepage at http://www.mysql.org/ and grab the latest stable
- release of the server. Both binaries and source are available and which
- you get shouldn't matter. Be aware that many of the binary versions
- of MySQL store their data files in /var which on many installations
- (particularly common with linux installations) is part of a smaller
- root partition. If you decide to build from sources you can easily set
- the dataDir as an option to configure.
- </PARA>
- <PARA>
- If you've installed from source or non-package (RPM, deb, etc.) binaries
- you'll want to make sure to add mysqld to your init scripts so the server
- daemon will come back up whenever your machine reboots.
- You also may want to edit those init scripts, to make sure that
- mysqld will accept large packets. By default, mysqld is set up to only
- accept packets up to 64K long. This limits the size of attachments you
- may put on bugs. If you add something like "-O max_allowed_packet=1M"
- to the command that starts mysqld (or safe_mysqld), then you will be

First, you'll want to fix MySQL permissions to allow access from
Bugzilla. For the purpose of this Installation section, the Bugzilla username

- a system cracker to somehow trick Bugzilla into executing a command

+ /usr/local/include. Because of these changed locations for
