Fedora update submission page broken for multiple packages

[Tom Lane]

I tried to submit an update for both the fc12 and fc11 versions of
postgresql.  It did not work; I had to file them as separate updates.
I'm pretty sure it used to work --- is my memory failing me, or is
this new breakage?  If the latter, where do I file bugs against the
submission webpage?

It definitely worked prior to the move this weekend.  Do you have any error
messages or other information to help track this down?

There are two places that you could file this:

https://fedorahosted.org/bodhi
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure

Thinking back on it, it was probably at least partly user error, but
there should have been a way to recover.

When I tried submitting the same update for different Fedora releases
about a year ago, it did not work. I do not remember the error
message, but I figured that there was a policy to submit packages to
different Fedora releases separately. Since then I probably made
hundreds of updates each filed separately.

If there is a way to file an update (same version and release except
the disttag) to multiple branches, please let me know.

Thanks

Usually it works: just add all the package NVRs to the same update
submission.  (That's what the "add another package" button is for.)

The case I was complaining about seems to be that adding a new package
to an *existing* update request doesn't work.  If you get it right
before you hit "submit", it's worked for awhile.

For "multiple branches"?  That has never worked for me either.

"Add another package" is to push multiple packages in a single
bodhi ticket. That has worked for me.

Not even when "editing" the update request again? That will pull it
back into "pending", however. And the package to add must not be part
of a different update request ticket already.

This used to work.  Once the update is submitted, bodhi breaks it into two
update requests when it saves it.

This works as well.  When bodhi saves this, it saves the set of packages
into a single update request so that they all get puhed together.

I do not know if there's any bugs when these two features are used together
but that doesn't sound like what was attempted here.

I don't know if this has worked in the past but given that you can add
multiple builds of a package to multiple branches via the add another package
mechanism, this seems like it should work.
