Bug#470452: closed by Sven Arvidsson <sa at whiz.se> (Fixed in 2.22)

Wed Mar 26 18:04:17 UTC 2008

Sven,
I prefer to close my reports when I can confirm that the bug is fixed,
which I have not yet been able to do.  I reported the bug upstream
myself, so I am aware of the claim that it is fixed. You have closed the
Debian bug without confirming yourself that it is fixed; I don't think
this is a sound way to proceed. I am not sure that the packages have
actually migrated to unstable yet (I have a machine that runs unstable
but because I am moving countries it is packed away for a couple more
weeks; a few days ago I checked the status of gnome 2.22: the packages
where in experimental still). If this is true, it means you have closed
a bug that is still actually present in the main Debian repositories,
and it's hard for me to see how this is correct. I'm a fairly new Debian
user, so perhaps I have something to learn here, but imagine if you did
this to a Release Candidate bug! 

I do from time to time close other people's bugs, but only after I have
verified that the problem is fixed and it is clear that the original
reporter is not going to close it. To be honest, I don't think it is
good practice to close someone else's report without even verifying a
rumoured upstream fix :-)

It is my intention to reopen the bug because I run reports on my open
bugs to keep on top of them, and a closed bug will not be picked up by
my review process. But I will wait for your feedback, since I am new
here. 

regards

Tim
