Speaking hypothetically (and playing the devil's advocate a bit), the fact that the bugreports were not responded to doesn't mean that they were not looked at or maybe reported upstream. It can happen that the upstream devs already knew about the bug and had a fix in a later version, which would come with the next version of Fedora. Nobody bothered to answer since it didn't require any further input from the OP. While one could consider not answering a bugreport to be a display of bad manners, David is right that you should check if the bug is resolved in the later versions of Fedora before getting angry about being ignored.
