Hi,
When closing a bug in experimental, the BTS displays it as fixed (bug
number crossed) in the list of the bugs even if a distribution tag
(sid, squeeze,...) is set. I think this is misleading.
The BTS should IMHO considers a bug closed only if the bug is fixed in
all distribution if such tags are set. If the bug is not fixed in all
distribution I guess that the little smiley (☺) is enough. If there is
no tags or there is no way to guess in which version the bug is
found and/or is closed, I guess that the behavior could stay the same.
Cheers

There are two separate things happening here. One is whether the bug
is -done, the other is whether the bug is fixed in a particular suite.
It is perfectly reasonable for a bug to be -done, yet still present in
other suites. Compare and contrast
