How can a bug be confirmed?

Post by BerlinCoder »

How could a bug, which is listed in the Wine bug tracker such as
Bug 42273 - Biet-O-Matic icons in icon bar loaded in wrong size

with the status "UNCONFIRMED", get confirmed as a real and genuine bug of Wine?

(The application has actually almost platinum level quality now despite this visual glitch you stumble into when you load it).

Bugs are confirmed when someone with bugzilla triage privileges is able to reproduce the bug. Bugs may also be confirmed by a triager if multiple users have commented in the bug that they have run into it.

I downloaded the app and confirmed your bug. However, keep in mind that being confirmed does not mean it will get fixed. That's dependent on a developer taking an interest in the bug.
