The point of having the bug tracker is to see what Debian's BTS is doing with the bug. If we manually change the status we lose that information. We actually *want* to know if Debian has a different status than Ubuntu. However, I agree it would be nice to see the status of all tasks for a particular bug report in the summary page. -Jordan -- launchpad-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/launchpad-users
