Package: bugs.debian.org
Severity: normal
After marking a bug as not fixed in the version it was closed at, the
bug is still marked as done (see #536541 for an example). This is
contrary to the documentation:
[http://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control]
found bugnumber [ version ]
Record that #bugnumber has been encountered in the given version of
the package to which it is assigned.
The bug tracking system uses this information, in conjunction with
fixed versions recorded when closing bugs, to display lists of bugs
open in various versions of each package. It considers a bug to be
open when it has no fixed version, or when it has been found more
recently than it has been fixed.
[...]
This command will only cause a bug to be marked as not done if no
version is specified, or if the version being marked found is equal
to the version which was last marked fixed.
[...]
notfixed bugnumber version
Remove the record that bug #bugnumber has been fixed in the given
version.
This command is equivalent to found followed by notfound (the found
removes the fixed at a particular version, and notfound removes the
found.)
Please change the 'notfixed' command to mark the bug as not done if the
conditions documented above are met.

If the bug is not fixed in that version, use found. nontfixed *only*
exists to remove erroneous fixed versions with no additional side
effects.
I've updated the documentation to make this clearer.
