Hi

With the refactorings of the bts command the following was not
possible anymore which I wanted to use for updating the metadata for
the bug #1125797:

$ bts -n found 1125797 6.17.8-1 , found 1125797 6.18~rc4-1~exp1 , done 1125797 
6.18.5-1 , done 1125797 6.19~rc4-1~exp1
bts done: Duplicate 'done' command for Bug#1125797! at /usr/bin/bts line 2099.

Mutltiple closings of bugs would be allowed by BTS and is AFAIU as
well what happends when one closes the bug in the various supported
releases (e.g. first in a unstable upload, followed by a stable update
later).

I see that the consistency checks explicitly mention:

   Consistency Checks

       • done: checks whether the bug is alread marked 'done',

but

       Many of the checks involve fetching online information from the BTS. Use
       --offline  to disable these. Purely bts internal consistency checks such
       as marking the same bug as done twice cannot be bypassed this way.

So my request is somehow in conflict with the implemented new
consistency checks.

Regards,
Salvatore
