Some teams are already tracking (some) upstream bugs like this. E.g. kde. This is another case where RESOLVED does not really apply. We'd really need= an=20 alternative category, e.g. DEFERRED. Meaning the problem is still there but= we=20 can't / won't do anything about it now. The bug is not resolved but remains= as=20 a silent reminder. Then,=20 RESOLVED UPSTREAM -> DEFERRED UPSTREAM RESOLVED LATER -> DEFERRED LATER Cheers, Andreas --nextPart2138087.0RXUsJ0Q4R Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABCgAGBQJMhrHxAAoJEEb+UGWnxTyHxOEP/1whN2D+k2Z5Fy/TJfp6Buql TlEDX+sPjr02rGcTgxj4+gS32htC0eheNagwbcnVvl/SOTMYXRLfSmFGqSrjyYmr spGqUEBiCb7RvgMXcEuuNxmqMav3NrpYh3nbRoQN/8w+U45H7tWTUWXLaqcg/YeY shT16ej1BEaN5ipCfyMgSjyA3w1+LlbHM3jQXeWUbWTFiHbYomVSQXl5ENrA+xar jADorPIYJYfF4a7hEomliyD7mi5Jk6UxsVmFUTdsoRCAnv43GEf3EZe53ghmywMg MJj627ifgia2mkLaU/fxRqipp8mMpQrNeufr0KTIqGZQF52euVbSfZo43NHSsjp7 G10w7XaiyXA2gR7riO4HI0+k2EJUSF2VZBhSzX4GvN5dCXJcKrUEEZc9rlIluGdP lD87w9o63ShB/yqRoIT1qCYdH3IUCGM6yLD4hfv3Ae4+2J5XErBu9D5BAuh0RZf7 HrWW/eAFwLwhVOxMhFnl4jEQ9ENS5s2OTyz/64To35Zcyl5PUH6Upe5V1p2SrpKS EHZSNThbfzeylRWOQLGXbBSmSSZV/hpHO4pmkncUYet+T+zlBGlZ3z+G1le79EDl 2O0dPE+mIliP+JIeLHTtXAL56OHGn8/AJsWDnXUJzXL03ZtKzBzKrsIQo2+f/QyC eKen5WQ9bldvmdm80jee =Jyrj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2138087.0RXUsJ0Q4R--
