One cannot use FAS to create bugzilla accounts. One has to create explicit bugzilla accounts and can then use FAS to login after if the e-mail addresses are the same in both places Reference https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/improve-communication-page-and-bz-login-flow/93651/6

Fedora uses https://bugzilla.redhat.com[Red Hat Bugzilla] for bug tracking. This page and the other pages under the "Bugs" header on the left offer some tips and guidance.
|
|
|
|
== Permissions
|
|
|
|
Any user, including "anonymous" (i.e. not logged in) users can view bugs.
|
|
(Note that some bugs or comments may be marked "private" or restricted to specific groups.
|
|
This is rare in Fedora and is generally to protect sensitive information that might be in an attachment or log snippet.)
|
|
|
|
Any logged-in user can create a bug report or add a comment to an existing bug.
|
|
|
|
The reporter or assignee of a bug can modify any field in their own bug.
|
|
|
|
== Creating an account
|
|
|
|
You must have a link:https://bugzilla.redhat.com/createaccount.cgi[Bugzilla account] to file bugs and interact with them.
|
|
Once you have created an account on Bugzilla, you can also login using your link:https://accounts.fedoraproject.org[Fedora account], but only if you used the same e-mail address for both accounts.
|
|
|
|
== Automatic changes
|
|
|
|
Bugzilla will automatically create links to bug reports or comments that follow the pattern "bug xxxx" or "comment xxxx".
|
|
|
|
Bugs marked as xref:bugzilla/find-duplicates.adoc[duplicate] will automatically get a comment referring to the other bug report. The other bug report will automatically get a comment indicating that another bug has been marked as a duplicate of it.
|
|
|
|
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org[Bodhi] — the Fedora updates system — will automatically comment and change the xref:#_status[status] of associated bugs as updates move through the system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Status and resolution
|
|
|
|
Bugzilla uses fields called "Status" and "Resolution" to track the state of a bug report or feature request.
|
|
|
|
=== Status
|
|
|
|
The table below summarizes the statuses.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
=== Resolution
|
|
|
|
The table below describes the resolutions that can apply to the _CLOSED_ status.
