Yes, if it was for users there would be a state indicating that a fix was being tested. Of course now anyone else who still has the problem can report the bug, which will be marked as a duplicate of the CLOSED bug. If bugzilla was for actually fixing bugs there would be a script which reminds someone that a fix has not been pushed, and it would be eventually. :-( -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
