I attempted to raise this a while ago on the launchpad-users mailing list (cc:ing again), although my email was not particularly well focused so may have gone unnoticed. It is quite a significant missing feature from Malone at the moment that it does not properly track different versions of distributions - each time you open a task on Ubuntu, it opens it on a non-specific version, and it seems to be very difficult to target a bug at a future version (which is quite a common use case, I think). It seems that it is actually possible to file bugs on specific versions of Ubuntu, but currently, Dapper seems to have just the one bug [1] (yay). [1] https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+bugs This is particularly problematic when you consider that Rosetta is already doing correct release-targetting [2] and as a result the bugs and translations are using rather different approaches.
