Completely triaged in the sense of someone having weeded out all duplicates, requested and received all necessary additional information [1] and ideally confirmed to happen in a current built-from-source installation similar to what a developer will use when trying to fix it. Being the oldest report for a given product qualifies as an indicator of when a problem occured first, but just its age does not imply that any of these other criteria have been met. Cheers, Kevin [1] and ideally unrelated information removed, some reports accumulate a lot of noise over time. Especially when being linked to from forums and people adding their "me too", even if their problem is actually different. -- Kevin Krammer, KDE developer, xdg-utils developer KDE user support, developer mentoring
