> Well, that's kinda part-and-parcel with closing bugs as "already filed". Surely the person closing a bug as a duplicate must have a duplicate bug in hand and not just "some idea" that some other similar bug must exist.
Not especially no, I've read regular discussions and requests for such options over years but I didn't keep note of each bug numbers > Put another way, surely the person responsible for a given package or aspect of the distro must be very familiar with all of the open issues, or have the ability to find all open issues related to his responsibilities very quickly and easily -- much more so than a user reporting a bug. Right, it might take a short time search for one duplicate, but hundred of duplicates are opened every day and it quickly counts in hours of time a day, time which could be used to work on the issue or search for numbers. Reopening this bug since I was just trying to keep the buglist usable by closing known duplicates, I don't want to spend my days searching for duplicates, some other triager might pick it up or the bug will just be a bit less easy to work on. -- No apparent way to change the color and location of the popups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/472874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
