  • Unreproducible

    From Santiago Vila@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 1 15:50:16 2023
    reporter: when I do X, I get Y
    maintainer: unreproducible
    reporter: how it's unreproducible?
    maintainer: because I never do X...

    For those who did not bother to read the definition, the above
    imaginary dialog (or maybe not so imaginary) is against
    the spirit of the tag. This is the definition:

    unreproducible
    This bug can't be reproduced on the maintainer's system.
    =====> Assistance from third parties is needed in diagnosing the cause of the problem.

    I could be wrong, but my interpretation of the highlighted sentence
    is that refusal to try X to see that Y happens does not count
    as "unreproducible".

    Thanks.

    Agreed.
