To clarify, this is something that we've never done, right, not
something that's now missing after the story-blob-processing work?

No that's a completely independent bug -- we simply forgot the linking...

I thought bug 424382 was about using HWDB-Submission for this during the post. The submission id just happens to also appear in the bug description and during the +filebug blob post.

Yes, and now I see that I was too stupid to find the relevant code...

lp.bug.browser.bugtarget.FileBugViewBase.submit_bug_action does indeed creates links for HWDB submissions mentioned in the apport data -- but:

In bug # 530380 you show this example of apport data:

ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: amd64
CheckboxSubmission: fee5e196cb921cbd36888f428b38b488
CheckboxSystem: 2a6f54df59af338184485e85cbcf0d32
Date: Mon Mar 1 15:03:33 2010
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04
Package: checkbox 0.8.6
PackageArchitecture: all
ProcEnviron:
 PATH=(custom, user)
 LANG=en_US.UTF-8
 SHELL=/bin/zsh
ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-13.18-generic
SourcePackage: checkbox
Uname: Linux 2.6.32-13-generic x86_64

So, we have a line "CheckboxSubmission:...", while Launchpad expects a line "HWDB-Submission:..."

The CheckboxSubmission is there just for record keeping - apport is doing the right thing and using HWDB-Submission in the header.

        # if we have checkbox submission key, link it to the bug; keep text
        # reference until the link is shown in Launchpad's UI
        if report.has_key('CheckboxSubmission'):
            hdr['HWDB-Submission'] = report['CheckboxSubmission']

Abel, would you consider this an easy bug to fix? For you?

I really don't think any work is required here.

yes, as Brian wrote, there is nothing to -- I was simply confused when I filed this bug...
