closing bugs against stable versions when a package is RMd from sid
OpenJDK 7 just got removed from the archive (#820703) and as is normal for such situations all its open bugs got closed. I happened to notice because I reported one of them (#780665). However, I reported the bug against the version in Jessie, which still exists, and is still the only version of it in stable (OpenJDK 8 didn't make it). I haven't confirmed but, I imagine several other of those bugs still apply to the versions in Jessie. (mine does still apply.) I think perhaps closing all open bugs when a sid package is removed is the wrong thing to do. I'm not sure what could be done instead, though. Thoughts? -- Jonathan Dowland Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

(Closing bugs for removed packaged [with a higher version than what's in unstable] is basically the same as closing a bug by an upload to unstable which also doesn't fix the same bug in stable.)
