As the bug reporter you should not set bug status "Needs info". Needs info is used by bug triagers to ask additional information to be able to reproduce the problem if the bug reporter has not provided enough information.
Needs info is not meant for asking questions to developers.

If somebody else (in this case qtaro) has the same problem then this bug can be marked "Confirmed". Confirmed means the bug can be reproduced by somebody else. This also ensures that the bug is applicable to Ubuntu in general, and not an accidental problem with the reporter's system.

Developers normally only look at confirmed bugs, they don't have time to ask for extra information: this is the task of a bug triager.
Bugs marked as "Needs info" are likely to be ignored by a developer since this indicates that the bug has not enough information to reproduce it.

As a member of the Ubuntu BugSquad please read about status in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/CommonTasks.

This bug should be marked as "Confirmed" since qtaro has the same problem.
