| nickoe | Hello, I wonder about the following comment when trying to mark a bug a duplicate. "Marking this bug as a duplicate will, by default, hide it from search results listings." Soo does this mean that if anything matches the bug that is marked as a duplicate will return the one that one specifies it a duplicate of, or does it just hide the bug al together, such that no one can find it anymore? | 11:02 |

| cjwatson | nickoe: Bugs that are marked as duplicates of other bugs are hidden from search results by default, although this is configurable. See e.g. the "Hide duplicate bugs" checkbox on https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bugs?advanced=1. | 13:03 |
| nickoe | cjwatson: ok, there. But with that checkbox checked, it seems to me it is harder to find a bug, i.e. if ther eis three bugs that is actually describing the same, but with different words. So if i mark two of those bugs a duplicate of one of them, then other people discovering the bug has a harder time searching for the bug they have discoverd, and might not find it, because they are hidden from search, then we could have yet another duplicate. | 14:26 |
| cjwatson | nickoe: Right. But the point of marking things as duplicates is generally that you don't want to see them. You can edit the description of the duplicate target if that helps searches | 14:56 |
| nickoe | cjwatson: ok | 15:22 |
