The BTS shows "Fixed in X.X.X-Y" in the bug summary list, I think.  It
doesn't seem like it'd be hard to add a "fixed-in=X.X.X-Y" parameter to the
query string if debbugs doesn't have that already -- that way you could get
a *better* report of bugs fixed in the latest NMU.

Show the bugs that has the fixes in unstable already.

Does that mean one can't get a list of bugs fixed in NMUs anymore? As
maintainer one might want to read up on those bugs specificaly without
having to parse the changelog for bug numbers.

Well, what do you propose as criteria for showing that? What do you mean by
"previous versions" -- everything back to 1.0-1?

This is already there, right at the bottom. It could be made more accessible,
though.

Yes, that's one of the advantages. :-)

I'm afraid my contribution to the BTS code is near-zero; you probably mean
Andreas Barth. I'm prepared to put code behind my suggestions if nobody else
wants to, though.

Since our default development suite is unstable, IMHO, does make sense
to see bugs in previous versions that are solved in unstable.

We can have a link for the other suites showing the bugs of them there
as an option. Makes simple and clear for us, IMHO.

Ahh, of course. This will be awesome to have working! It'll mean that
uploads for unstable don't need to reinclude all closes that were
close in experimental anymore. Perfect. Thank you very much for your
and Don's work on BTS :-)
