Comment 6 for bug 243057

This is not related to this bug and parsing in general. The major problem in the +text view of launchpad bugpages is that pages like https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/211759/+text, unlike https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/211759, are not redirected, so there is no way to find which of the many tasks should be shown as bug.info.

Redirection examples:
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/211759 --> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/211759
but
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/211759/+text is not redirected

if https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/211759/+text would be redirected to https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/211759/+text then it would be possible to use LPTasks.current_from_url() to parse 'distro' and 'package' out of the url to identify the task shown as bug.info
