Hello
From time to time I see old bug reports that are still wrongly
opened and referring to old packages no longer in the tree. Would
be possible to add a way to periodically check for bugs referring
in summary to obsolete packages and, then, allow us to have a
cleaner bug list?
Hi,
what about siutation package was removed from tree. After sometime
other maintainer wants to put this package to the tree again,
shouldn't fix those bugs before doing this?
Marcin
When package foobar gets removed from Portage, the remaining bugs
affecting foobar gets closed with resolution WONTFIX/OBSOLETE/FIXED
depending on type of the bug.
When package foobar gets readded to Portage, the maintainer needs to
check also for closed bugs.
That's how it is now, and the workflow wouldn't change with this proposal.
So you are right, but irrelevant to the /topic in hand.
