Description John Reiser 2012-08-21 05:13:48 UTC 
Description of problem: A new bug should be filed when the product Release and package point version differ from a "dup" in an old Release, paricularly if the old Release is end-of-life.  The bug has been re-incarnated, but the current abrt still considers the bug to be dead.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-2.0.10

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. abrt claims that bug 849821 is a dup of bug 729732, even though the two n-v-r are
  1.3.0-6.fc17
  1.2.2-1.fc15
which are quite different (two Fedora Releases, a major Thunar release).
2.
3.
  
Actual results: "dup" based on hash ignores cross-Release changes


Expected results: Differing Release causes new bug, or at least re-open of old bug.  (Note that bugzilla ordinarily requires that only the original Reporter can re-open a Closed bug.  This is too stringent a condition when the Fedora Release changes.)
