Bug Description
1) "Please include the exact URL of a page where you had the problem..."
https:/
2) "...along with information on how to reproduce it."
With regards to above bug link it was already nominated for Karmic by Alain Baeckeroot -> I clicked "Also affects distribution" -> Distribution field Ubuntu -> Source Package Name: field libreoffice -> Continue button
I noticed how libreoffice (Ubuntu) was automatically nominated for Karmic by Alain Baeckeroot, when I am the one who added the Source Package name, and did not want to nominate it for Karmic. While having a Karmic nomination is an interesting proposition and may ultimately be appropriate, it was not nominated by Alain Baeckeroot and is not appropriate at this time. It seems LP should either not auto-nominate or provide the option to do so within the "Also affects distribution" screen.
3) "If the bug you found generated an OOPS id, please include it here as well."
No OOPS was generated.
