Please take as an example #829741 and #827164 (both public) which were filed as a duplicate of #832029 (private!) by "Apport retracing service". The reminder window in the two original bug says that it is a duplicate, and you should only comment when you think it is wrong. But without seeing the "master" bug report this is not possible.
Furthermore it is strange that (judging from the bug numbers) "Apport retracing service" prefers the newer+private bug in favor of the older+public bug reports in this case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/764414 Title: private master bugs are confusing and lead to more duplicate filings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/764414/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
