Developers are not magical beasts immune to error. 33% being real
errors would be expectable.
This is not to say that they have enough staff to handle all their real
error reports though.... Remember that with open source, there is not a
lot of money floating around at companies like SuSE, Mandrake, etc. If
you aren't offering to pay them to fix the bug, can they really afford
to fix every bug reported? Probably not is my guess.
Namesys fixes every bug, but filesystem developers are unusual because
our product has to be zero defect or no one wants to use it.
Send bug reports to developers listed in the source code, not distros.
