[15/01/16 21:37:36] <drkokandy> Does anyone know about adding an upstream bug to a bug in Launchpad? I'm trying to add an upstream bug I created to a bug report, and Launchpad does not recognize the URL. The bug is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxsession/+bug/1347402
[15/01/16 21:37:37] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 1347402 in lxsession (Ubuntu) "lxsession-default webbrowser crashes session" [Undecided,Confirmed]
[15/01/16 21:37:48] <drkokandy> And the upstream bug is https://sourceforge.net/p/lxde/bugs/726/
[15/01/16 21:37:55] <drkokandy> I'm new at this :) Thanks
[15/01/17 16:14:30] <teward> not sure if that's a locked out feature, or not, drkokandy (linking upstream bugs). But if it isn't, then on the LP bug you should see "Also affects project", and it assumes the LXDE project which is a sourceforge tracker (it knows this). It asks for the upstream tracker bug location.
[15/01/17 16:15:30] <drkokandy> Right teward - I was able to get to that page, but when I entered the Sourceforge URL, it says it was not able to recognize the bug tracker at that location
[15/01/17 16:15:32] <teward> drkokandy: from there, it offers you 3 option buttons, of which you select "I have the URL..." one since you have the URL. Then paste the URL, and hit "Add to bug report"
[15/01/17 16:15:46] <teward> drkokandy: might want to state that then, because that seems like a bug

Tested and reproduced myself on the LXDE project tracker for LP Bug 1347402 - the actual error is as follows from LP when we try this: "Launchpad does not recognize the bug tracker at this URL."

Looks like LP doesn't recognize the SourceForge tracker?
