Well, the versioning in the BTS makes sure this happens -- if you don't ack the NMU (by including its changelog entry in your own upload), the bugs get visible again. (This isn't 100% at the moment, since version tracking isn't enabled in the default display, but this will get fixed at some point -- it's a pure display issue.) The other alternative is simply to include an NMU diff as a separate bug when you NMU (cf. the recent discussion on -devel). > maybe fixed should be versionned as well, I don't know, but that's not > the solution (using close). In that case, you're going for yet another major change; I can't really see what you gain by doing so. I agree with the submitter that using close is the best solution here (which should be obvious given my recent blog entries :-) ). /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
