Description Radek Bíba 2012-05-21 10:55:19 UTC

Description of problem:
Before the latest upgrade of Bugzilla, links to closed bugs, such as:

bug 123456 (which is closed as a dupe of another bug (and also has a nice number))

had a line through the bug number, which made it clear that the target bug wasn't open anymore; I don't know how exactly it was done, perhaps using the <del> tag?. Anyway, after the upgrade, these links are displayed just like links to open bugs, and only if you move the cursor to the link will you see the bug status.

I couldn't find any field in my preferences that would allow me to get back to the old behavior. Please revert this change or make the behavior configurable.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

This only seems to affect Red Hat skin (default), the other two are unaffected.

Bumping up Priority, this hinders regular work.

Comment 4 Simon Green 2012-05-23 07:04:36 UTC

This will be in the next release.
