Bruce, Yes, that is the general rule, except if a newer bug has made more progress or documented the issue more thoroughly. In my duplicate there is feedback from a GTK theme engine developer, and patches attached to fix half of the cases in this bug - they need to be seen more than this bare report.
For example, from Mozilla's duplicate process at http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/screening-duplicates.html - "Other things being equal, newer bugs should be made DUPLICATES of older bugs, but, more importantly, whichever bug is further along in the process of getting fixed should not be made a duplicate." Otherwise do I have to attach my patches and test cases here again, duplicating effort? -- new GTK widgets could look better https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/180962 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
