maxbIf a bug has been 'fixed' with an upload which actually breaks the package in new and different ways, should I reopen it or file a new one?03:33
micahgmaxb: I would think it depends if you will revert the fix or not03:33
micahgif yes, then yes, if not, then not03:34

sbcWhen more information comes in on a bug marked as incomplete, and the new info results in the bug being marked as a duplicate, should the status of the bug also be changed back to New, or is marking as a duplicate enough?10:38
thekornsbc, in general, this is enough, you should not care about the status of duplicates11:02
sbcthekorn: ok, thanks11:06

stephen1i knew i could do it!16:28
stephen1micahg: So, there's no real answer to how to determine which bug report "rules" on a particular question. ???16:29

alouriehello17:31
alouriethere is a request to update a package version of Planner because of specific feature. It was implemented in upstream in latest version. Should I tag bug #429467 as "wishlist" ?17:32
ubot4Launchpad bug 429467 in planner "planner program doesn't display minutes" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/42946717:32
bdmurrayalourie: no, tagging bugs as wishlist isn't really helpful it be better to ask someone to set the importance to wishlist17:34
alouriebdmurray: thanks. Should I ask here?17:38
bdmurrayalourie: yes, members of bug control who can set importance do usually hang out here17:39
