Knut Anders Hatlen resolved DERBY-2677.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Duplicate

I don't think this failure has been seen after the fix for DERBY-3347 went in, 
so I'm closing the issue. If it happens again, please reopen or file a new bug.
Do you mean close or resolve?

I meant resolve. Have updated the comment.

And what is our policy on closing when it comes to issues resolved as
duplicates again?

I don't know if we have any formal policy, but I would expect that it's
more or less the same as how it's normally done for issues that are
resolved as fixed: The reporter verifies that the problem has been
resolved and closes the issue, or reopens it if the problem is still
present. If there is no feedback within a reasonable period of time, we
just assume that the resolution is OK and go ahead and close the issue.


I read this as that the duplicate should follow the state of the issue it duplicates.

I think I sometimes have closed the issues I have resolved as duplicates immediately. I suppose the motivation for this is that one should go to the original issue for details on the problem, and that these duplicates tend to remain lingering for a while. This is especially true if we don't add a duplicate link between the issues.

Note that creating a link is visible from both issues, whereas if one only adds a regular comment one must do it manually for both issues.
