(This is a question for David Galloway, I guess, since this problem
arose within the last couple days as he has been battling the spammer.)
Today I noticed that when I go to create a new issue in the Backport
tracker, it shows all the same fields (both standard and custom) as when
I create an issue in the Fix, Bug, Feature, etc. trackers.
This is change from the previous state, in which the Backport tracker
had only a small subset of these fields.
What's really strange about this is when I go to edit the Backport
tracker to turn off all those fields that aren't needed, I can see that
Redmine thinks they aren't there:
http://tracker.ceph.com/trackers/9/edit
Saving this state has no effect: when I try to create a new Backport
tracker issue, I still see all the extra fields.
Also, I suspect this may be the root cause of another problem that
appeared within the same (last few days) time frame: our
"backport-create-issue" script, which uses the Redmine API, can no
longer create Backport tracker issues.
David - whelp?
