Description Marcus von Appen freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-06-03 19:10:36 UTC
Right now we just provide

* FIXED
* As Intended
* DUPLICATE

as status refinements for "Issue Resolved".

This does not cover things like 

* being unable to reproduce (-> Can't Reproduce)
* missing feedback (-> No Feedback)
* will never be fixed (-> Won't Fix)

Those additional information would be highly appreciated.

Comment 2 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-06-04 05:47:41 UTC
so. we won't do "Won't Fix" since the state needs to reflect the reason that it won't be fixed.

"Not Enough Information" ("No Feedback") is fine.
"Unable to Reproduce" is fine.


If these are sufficient mark this bug "loop closed"; else re-open with additional content.

Those are sufficient at the moment. Thanks!

Bug 190583 is marked as a dupe of this, but the current options don't cover invalid bugs (e.g., bugs that should be reported elsewhere).

reopen due to comment below
Comment 6 Koop Mast freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-06-05 19:26:17 UTC
Can we also have a "superseded by" state? (yes typos wheee)
Duplicated comes close but not quite..

see the following bugs are example:
Update link-grammer to
5.0.3 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188642
5.0.4 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188738
5.0.6 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188840

The 5.0.3 and 5.0.4 should be able to be marked superseded by the 5.0.6 update.
Comment 7 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-06-06 02:29:33 UTC
I think "overcome by events" along with adding a "see also" is likely correct.  Adding a new "enter a bug number here" resolution is actually quite difficult.
Comment 8 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2014-06-07 07:43:23 UTC
I added "Report to Upstream".  for additional states its likely better to open a new bug and add this one as a see also.
