[Bug 1414352] [NEW] Improve code coverage by adding tests
by Terri 23 Dec '18

23 Dec '18

Public bug reported: Mailman Core and Postorius have sets of tests, but could use more extensive test coverage. This bug is meant to be a repeatable bug suitable for new contributors (e.g. prospective Google Summer of Code Students). In short: find a piece of Postorius or Mailman Core that isn't yet tested and write a test (or set of tests) for it. Contributors wishing to work on Mailman Core should look at START.rst and DATABASE.rst for more information about setting up tests. For Postorius, Florian is working on vcrpy test integration, so new tests can use that format. Links to documentation and examples much appreciated to update this bug! ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: postorius Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: beginner-friendly easy mailman3 repeatable test ** Tags added: easy mailman3 ** Also affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: - Postorius has a set of tests, but it could use more extensive coverage. - This bug is meant to be a repeatable bug suitable for new contributors - (e.g. prospective Google Summer of Code Students).

[Bug 1779445] [NEW] edithtml.py saves en templates using html entity reference with raw iso-8859-1 character
by Yasuhito FUTATSUKI＠POEM 23 Jul '18

23 Jul '18

Public bug reported: In Mailman's web administrative interface, edithtml page saves en language templates by using iso-8859-1 raw character if the template uses html entity reference like " ". For example, If "General list information page" (templates/en/listinfo.html), which contains  ", has been saved without modification from web UI, the lists template en/listinfo.html will contain raw '\xa0' character. If Adding " in text area and submit changes twice, it will turn into "". I'm not sure the patch attached is a good way to fix it because I don't know these entity reference characters are always ISO-8859-1 character, but for reference. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Patch added: "edithtml-save-as-ascii-patch.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779445/+attachment/5158043/+files/edithtml… ** Branch linked: lp:mailman/2.1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779445 Title: edithtml.py saves en templates using html entity reference with raw iso-8859-1 character To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1779445/+subscriptions

[Bug 1760506] [NEW] mm_cfg.py syntax error is handled ungracefully
by Bruce Perens 24 Jun '18

24 Jun '18

Public bug reported: The user left a trailing quote out in mm_cfg.py . Mailman's response was to fail with the message "Mailman experienced a very low level failure". Perhaps "low-level failure" was Mailman's opinion of the user :-) One would hope that we could catch an exception from Python and give the user a bit more help.

[Bug 1768892] [NEW] bin/arch still reports messages in list language/charset
by Yasuhito FUTATSUKI＠POEM 22 Jun '18

22 Jun '18

Public bug reported: When mm_cfg.DISABLE_COMMAND_LOCALE_CSET is false, bin/arch try to use locale environment variables to determin which language/charset to use for output messages, but only help message is affected by command line locale, progression messages are still reported in lists language/charset. These messages are in Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py and Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py, using Mailman.Archiver.HyperArch.HyperArchive.message() to output to stderr (only if VERBOSE flag is set). The patch attached fixes these message to use i18n.C_() instead of i18n._(). ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Patch added: "using C_() instead of _() for messages to stderr" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768892/+attachment/5133057/+files/bin_arch… ** Branch linked: lp:mailman/2.1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768892 Title: bin/arch still reports messages in list language/charset To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1768892/+subscriptions

[Bug 1777342] [NEW] config_list: generated python encoding declaration is erroneously translated
by WGH 22 Jun '18

22 Jun '18

Public bug reported: config_list script generates Python configuration file. The script has header specified as string constant enclosed into gettext call. In Russian message files, someone translated "coding: %(charset)s" thing into Russian, which is wrong, because Python can only recognize encoding declaration in English. Maybe others translations have similar problem, but I haven't checked. #: bin/config_list:118 msgid "" "# -*- python -*-\n" "# -*- coding: %(charset)s -*-\n" "## \"%(listname)s\" mailing list configuration settings\n" "## captured on %(when)s\n" msgstr "" "# -*- python -*-\n" "# -*- кодировка: %(charset)s -*-\n" "## параметры списка рассылки \"%(listname)s\"\n" "## данные собраны %(when)s\n" ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777342 Title: config_list: generated python encoding declaration is erroneously translated To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1777342/+subscriptions

[Bug 1777222] [NEW] admindb uses wrong language in subscription approval result page body
by Yasuhito FUTATSUKI＠POEM 22 Jun '18

22 Jun '18

Public bug reported: If * a list allows to use different language from list.preferred_language * its policy requires admin approval for subscribes * it set to send welcome message to new member and admin approves subscription request of user who select his language different from list's on Web UI, the result page body of admindb uses charset of user's language while the header declare to use charset of the lists, thus causes 'Mojibake'. I'm very sorry, but I have not read the code arround it yet, so I report symptom only right now. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Branch linked: lp:mailman/2.1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777222 Title: admindb uses wrong language in subscription approval result page body To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1777222/+subscriptions
