I seem to remember we decided once to let the script that does the real installation in the ftp-tree (dinstall) clos the bugs and defined a syntax to use in the changelog so dinstall can recognize which bugs should be closed. So now we just have to wait until someone decides to implement this. We might want to refine this procedure first though, since it's not really suited for multiple-distributions. > As a package maintainer, once I've fixed the bug in my source tree and > uploaded the fix, I really don't want to have to think about that bug again. <aol>Me too</aol>. However I stumble across these premature closed bugs when I'm updating the Hamm Bug Stamp-Out List: a lot of bugs suddenly disappear, and the packages are still in Incoming. Luckily these processed were processed before I got around to sending the list :) Wichert.
