Yes, we have only migrated open bugs to Gitlab. I'm not sure whether it
makes sense to revive the bug if it is not an Arch Linux Packaging
issue, since if I understand the old bug correctly it is to be fixed
upstream with the tracking issue being [1] as you have commented there.

Just create an account by sending an E-Mail to
accountsupport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (we have currently still closed public
registration due to spam issues), set it up and you're ready to
contribute.

Just make sure to have a look at the [Bug Reporting Guidelines][2]
before starting to do so :)

You'll have to open a new issue and reference the old one, given
that it is actually an Arch Linux Packaging bug.
