Bug Status
There are few status fields in the Motion bug reports to keep things simple.
- New: New bugs, bugs not yet resolved are in this state
- Assigned: Bug resolution has been assigned to a specific developer.
- Resolved: Bugs that are resolved but not yet implemented in a released version
- Released: Bug is resolved and fix is implemented in a released version of Motion.
- Duplicate: Duplicate of already reported bug
- Monitored: Bugs that cannot be reproduced or may turn out not to be bugs later.
- Rejected: Rejected. The most controversal state and should always be justified to respect the users. Bugs can be rejected because:
- Behavour is as designed and not regarded as a bug.
- Feature request - not a bug.
- The bug cannot be reproduced by anyone and has been in monitor state for a long time.
- Bug is related to using old version of Motion or old version of shared libraries or non-compatible hardware and we will not implement the compatibility
