Bug Description

In order to make it possible for the Ubuntu QA team to use the hardware database to identify bugs related to hardware devices, we want to write a script which uses launchpadlib to to query Launchpad and process the information locally.

The script should take, as input, a device or driver, and return a list of bugs likely to be related to that device.

The script should do that by getting all the submissions containing the specified device / driver, and for each submission looking at the bugs affecting the submission's owner. The results should be limited to bugs targetting a pre-defined (configurable) list of packages which are deemed hardware-related.

Sigh, sorry, wrong URL (wouldn't it be great if we could go back and edit comments? :-) ).

I meant: https://help.launchpad.net/API/Uses
