It may be for a component which we do not support, or a bug report that has not received a reply after requesting "needinfo" of someone for a while.

This may be due to a lack of clear requirements or insufficient information to reproduce the bug.

This typically includes almost all feature requests and enhancements, and most bugs that we don't consider release showstoppers. (Moving bugs upstream typically increases the chance that someone will have time to look at it, and often the upstream developer or bug owner even works at Red Hat.<br><br> Moving bugs upstream simply allows us to keep everything in one place, and work better with open source community developers outside of Red Hat. We only keep bugs open on redhat.com to track our immediate short-term items, or issues with our patches and/or packaging, or because the upstream package in question has poor bug tracking.<br><br> The main focus of development for most packages is the upstream community, even when Red Hat is a big contributor to the community.) Some upstream bug trackers include http://bugzilla.gnome.org, http://bugs.kde.org, and http://bugzilla.mozilla.org. This resolution should not be used for Red Hat Enterprise Linux bugs. </dd> <dt class="worksforme">WORKSFORME </dt> <dd class="worksforme"> The problem described is not a bug. It is preferred that resolution <b>NOTABUG</b> be used if problem has been determined to not be a bug, or use the needinfo flag if more information is needed.
