Hi all,

at the ESC call 2012-08-09 we agreed that User Profile update related 
bugs need more attention; we ran into some very serious last minute 
problems with 3.6.0.

To avoid such problems in future we should try some measures:

a) If we recommend to try with renamed User Profile, we should always 
encourage the reporter / user to save the old profile for investigation 
by a developer.

b) All those bugs should be added to 'Depends on' of "Bug 43489 - [Task] 
Incorrect behavior using existing User Profile for upgrade"
  <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43489>
I will follow up all new bugs and contact developers whether they see a 
chance to get information from contents of such a saved user profile or 
whether anything else can be done with info of the bug report.

Thank you and best regards

Rainer
