But then they get closed by the wrong version, no? Dev-ref says: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#when-bugs-are-closed-by-new-uploads > To close any remaining bugs that were fixed by your upload, email the > .changes file to XXX-done@bugs.debian.org, where XXX is the bug number, and > put Version: YYY and an empty line as the first two lines of the body of the > email, where YYY is the first version where the bug has been fixed. When I don't have the .changes file anymore, I just mail XXX-done@bugs.debian.org with a mail that has the "Version: YYY" line at the top and then in the body explains that I'm manually closing it because I made a mistake. Thanks! cheers, josch
