Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to report this problem. Unfortunately, I have been able to reproduce this on our staging server. For example, I was able to create a new bug at https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=733615 , and set the See Also field as expected.

Are you still seeing this error?

Yes, I'm still seeing this. Could it be related to @redhat.com vs. not? Can you try creating a bugzilla account with a gmail address?

Comment 3 Matt Hirsch 2011-11-21 06:01:27 UTC
I also cannot update the see also field on THIS bug.

The account I used on https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=733615 was testuser. In theory, that account should be able to reproduce the error, as it has no Red Hat Bugzilla group privileges.

I'll continue to look into this issue for you.

I have found the problem, and have filed a bug (with patch) upstream.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753635

Hopefully they will approve the patch, and we'll inherit the change locally.
