Package: bugs.debian.org Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] The 'close' command has been deprecated since at least February 2002 [0], and its use is strongly discouraged by ยง5.8.2 of the developers reference:
You should never close bugs via the bug server close command sent to
[email protected]. If you do so, the original submitter will
not receive any information about why the bug was closed. [1]
After almost 20 years of deprecation, maybe it's time to finally drop
it?
