  • Run "yum install deskbar-applet" as root, if the RPM is not already installed.
  • Right click on the GNOME panel.
  • Select "Add to panel".
  • Select "Deskbar" from the list.
  • Right click on the Deskbar icon on the panel.
  • Select "Preferences".
  • Check the box to the left of the Fedora Bugzilla Module.

For a quick search method in Firefox see, KieranClancy's user page.

Talk with Bugzilla from command line (or scripts)

Metrics

A project has been started to create some useful metrics of the state of fedora bugs, or Fedora Metrics. This will allows us to identify areas that progress is being made, as well as where we need to dirrect our focus. At some point we also want to be able to start identifying and rewarding those that are making contributions.

In the meantime, progress is being tracked at BugZappers/components.
