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.

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.
