Is there a trick for making the bugzilla bug entry form come up faster? E.g., is there a way to specify the fields that have huge drop-down lists as parameters in the URL and prevent the drop-down lists from being loaded? I discovered that I could specify the initial value of the component list by adding "component=/whatever/" to the URL, but it still loads the whole list.
It's rather annoying that I have to sit around twiddling my thumbs for 40 seconds (yes, it's really that long; I just timed it) waiting for the page to load every time I want to report a bug.

Will save you tons of time and pain.

Thta's neat, but it doesn't solve the problem I wrote about. It still takes 38 seconds to load the bug report form when you click on the "Report a new bug" link from the bugz.fedoraproject.org page for a particular RPM.

I don't have a fix per se for this problem, but I've started working around it by using the command-line 'bugzilla' client:
$ bugzilla login $ bugzilla new -p Fedora -v rawhide -c <component_name> -s 'short summary' -l "component-0.0.1-1.fc11.x86_64 \nBlah blah blah this doesn't work and here's what I've already done to try fixing it"
Maybe Will is listening -- one RFE I was thinking about, but not sure if it's worthwhile, would be allowing people to use $EDITOR to fill in the comment (-l) field.

Kushal has a bug reporting client with a text UI (that uses newt) that is currently being used to build the underlying functionality for
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bugzilla_Desktop_Client
I am working with him on this. We would release this soon as soon as we get Red Hat Legal to sign off on the name.

You can also use python-bugzilla, which can do querying and reporting with a command-line interface. works very nicely.

Right, that's what provides the /usr/bin/bugzilla I mentioned. Keen!

Oh yes, now I see your mail :) sorry to duplicate!

I just tried this for http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/xorg-x11-server
Firstly it failed to list https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512111 which should be included for this component, and secondly there seems no way to list the bugs by bug number i.e. a numerically monotonic increasing set....

1. bugz.fp.o doesn't list closed bugs.
and secondly there seems no way to list the bugs by bug number i.e. a numerically monotonic increasing set....
2. Taking patches.

It won't list closed bugs. That's the same as bugzilla itself by default.

If you know the bug number, you just go to bugzilla.redhat.com/number

I think what he was looking for was a way to have the output sorted purely by bug number, rather than sorted on status first and some unseen keys following that. Anyway, the project code is at:
https://fedorahosted.org/packagedb/
Thankfully Python based, so not hard to hack if someone's interested.

Yes indeed that would be useful - you can do this in bugzilla.redhat.com once you have a list in the browser...

Smells like an Apache config issue. We serve tons of stuff ourselves and have fallen back to Apache using mpm workers and a mod_fastcgi interface to external PHP processes (managed by php-fpm).
