It has been suggested that I could be useful by testing older bugs to
see if they could be closed -- i.e. a fix for another problem or a
general upgrade has fixed the problem.
I can't find a way to retrieve project bugs in order of date originally
filed.
reportbug-ng can sort by "last activity" but not "date opened".
https://www.debian.org/Bugs/ can report by "classification"
but not "date opened".
A second question concerns the progress of a package from experimental
to stable.
A case in point - Tomboy 1.15.8 has just been released by upstream.It
was suggested on the Tomboy mailing list that I file Debian bug to use
the latest release.
Currently
stretch (testing) and sid (unstable) are at 1.14.1-4
experimental (rc-buggy) is at 1.15.4-1+b1
Would that indicate whether or not a bug report is needed?
TIA
