Comment 3 Eike Rathke 2018-11-06 14:10:49 UTC
Btw, that template doesn't work anymore, fedpkg update said:

So it needs an extra line

# One of low, medium high, urgent
severity=...

Comment 4 Eike Rathke 2018-11-06 14:17:03 UTC
F28 (using ICU 60.2) or earlier are not affected, the code in question does not exist there.
