I have started to update these files as far as I can but that will be for 5.0.1 or 5.1.0 Hälsningar/Regards/Grüsse, P.O. Jonsson oor...@jonases.se On 10.

The status “Closed” is only set when there is a release version, right? When shall the status “Pending” be used? Pending should be used until the change is available in a shipped release. That allows us to determine what changes are actually in a release. Closed should never be used until a release containing the change has shipped.     What is the difference between the milestones 5.0.0, 5.0.1 and 5.1.0? That indicates which release the change is going to ship on. Since the 5.0.0 has already been released, that should never be used again. 5.0.1 would be a release that will contain only bug fixes to 5.0.0. The 5.1.0 release will contain new content, as well as bug fixes to 5.0.0 content. Bug fixes like this one should be applied to both the trunk and the 5.0.1 branch and the 5.0.1 milestone used.    This fix solved the problem for 5.1.0Beta but the installer for 5.0.0 is still missing it. Is it ok to go in and make a retrospective build for 5.0.0 and correct it manually? No, it is not ok. Once 5.0.0 has shipped, no changes to that tree are permitted. Fixes can only be released by spinning a 5.0.1 release.    Thanks for the info, makes sense. But unfortunately most people will be using 5.0.0 rather than the rolling release so they will miss out on things like this. I guess we need to start thinking about a 5.0.1 then. We don't ship a new bug-fix release every time there's a change. This should wait until we have a significant number of them or there's a bug that impacts a lot of users. This is nowhere near that level.    I will change the milestone for #1894 and #1875 to 5.0.1 then. Re #1854 it is still ok to add missing files, like the source files to 5.0.0 ? I think it's ok to upload the source file archive to sourceforge and label it 5.0.0, but any changes (e.g. CmakeList changes) only get applied to the appropriate branches.     /P.O. Any information on how the bug tracker should be used is welcome. Hälsningar/Regards/Grüsse, P.O.
