Package: bugs.debian.org
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I wish reassigned bugs would stay visible in the original package for a
little while after being reassigned somewhere else. This would allow
submitters to see that a bug which affects package P1 but ultimately
needs sourceful changes to package P2 has been reported already.
What I currently do is reassign the first bug I receive when it's not
my package's fault, but keep at least one of the subsequent reports as
to keep the problem visible and documented to the next bug reporters.
This causes IMO useless work which could perhaps be avoided if the
recently reassigned bugs were visible (and marked as such).
Thanks,

The (now not so new) affects feature deals with this class of bugs,
where a bug affects a package which it was originally assigned to, but
was then reassigned to the correct package.
