Bugzilla... how does it work?

[Sunnz]

Well I never have really used Bugzilla before, and I have submitted my first 'bug' today: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148885

So, what would go on next? Do I wait for them to fix it and eventually changes its status to "fixed"?

For that particular bug you can do nothing but wait.

Alright, were just making sure that I used bugzilla properly... I guess I'll just have to wait now.

From the bug it follows that the newest version does work. So you could unmask the newest version yourself and use that:

It does?? What about those people who have their emerge --info thing that says it works? Are they testing it on their machine?

The ones that say it works are indeed testing it on their machine. They seem to be using amd64 and as you can see here:
http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=nvu
The stable (working) version for amd64 is newer (1.0-r4) than the stable version for x86 (0.90-r2). The newest version will probably work fine on your machine too, devs just haven't come around to marking it stable yet.

[Sunnz]

Oh, so they just go test it and marked it as stable just because the bug being posted? Is that what they meant by "amd64's first! we're first! " that amd64 goes stable before x86? That's pretty awsome if you ask me!!

I'll try emerge --sync tomorrow morning, need sleep now! (Hope it will work out!)
