BugTracker for Arch

a) Is the current Bug Tracker System good enough for Arch?

b) If the Arch Devs could "start again" what would/should they pick?

Re: BugTracker for Arch

I tried to use Flyspray recently and gave up. The development version (the only one that includes LDAP support) is very buggy (you can easily break your DB from the administration interface) and it looks like the project lacks a lot of manpower.

This is sad, because Flyspray is very promising. Maybe I'll go for Mantis instead.

Re: BugTracker for Arch

What about Launchpad?

Some people are already using it for Arch :S

No, there is no bugtracker for Arch in Launchpad.

Yes, I know that I added your report of ufw to ArchLinux (in LP). But you can't add a bug for Arch only. It's disabled because Arch uses Flyspray. You can only mark existing bugs that they affects Arch, too. Mostly for Meta-Bug-Tracking... because you can link to an upstream bug-tracker (example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gajim/+bug/202557).
Of course, it is possible to use it as a primary bugtracker with all features. But I don't think that will happen....

Maybe some day if that problem is fixed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/50699
