Description Nils Philippsen 2011-06-01 11:32:05 UTC
Description of problem:
I just attempted to add an upstream bug ticket at SourceForge to bug #634235, Bugzilla didn't let me do that.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
version 3.6.3002

How reproducible:
Reproducible.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit a bug
2. Add a bug ticket on SourceForge to the bug, e.g. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3310116&group_id=127649&atid=709086
  
Actual results:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3310116&group_id=127649&atid=709086 is not a valid URL to a bug. See Also URLs should point to one of:
show_bug.cgi in a Red Hat Bugzilla installation.
A bug on launchpad.net
An issue on code.google.com.
A bug on bugs.debian.org.
An issue on jira.jboss.org or issues.jboss.org.
Please press Back and try again.

Expected results:
SourceForge bug is added to the Bugzilla bug.

Additional info:
Somebody else filed bug #596177 "RFE : please allow bugs to depend on googlecode and sourceforge bug tracker" against Bugzilla 3.4 which was CLOSED/WONTFIX as bug trackers which use more than one identifier weren't supported back then. Since the implementation of referencing external bugs seems to have changed in the meantime (notably that Google issues are allowed now), I think it should also be feasible to support SourceForge bug URLs.

NB: enter_bug.cgi has a line "Add External Bug" at the end of the form which has a list of bug trackers and a bug id field, i.e. the old way of doing things. Intentional?

This was already fixed in Bugzilla 4.2 (Google is also supported)
