What does "UNCONFIRMED" mean?

Post by a-1 »

What does "UNCONFIRMED" in the status field of winehq's buglilla mean?

1.The bug report is missing information so I can't check it.

2. I tried to reproduce it, but I couldn't.

3. I don't know if it's a bug or not.

4. It's not a bug.

Which of the above?

"Unconfirmed" is the status bugs start in when filed by users without bug triage privileges. If a triager can reproduce the problem, or multiple users report the same problem, the status may be changed to "New." A bug staying in Unconfirmed status does not mean it's not a real bug; if the app affected is not widely used and does not have a free download there simply may be no one who can even try to reproduce it.
