Bug Description

I am working on getting a merge in to the package ec2-hibinit-agent that fixes 2 bugs:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ec2-hibinit-agent/+bug/2024505
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ec2-hibinit-agent/+bug/2023924

Since the MP has already been released to Mantic the 2 bugs are labeled as "Fix Released" and therefore, by default, don't show up in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ec2-hibinit-agent. The issue here is I am getting duplicate bug reports for this issue for other versions such as Jammy/Focal.

I think a good fix would be to, by default, not hide a bug that is "Fix Released" until all versions are released. I don't think many users will think to click "Advanced Search" > "[] Fix Released" to look for a bug actively affecting them.

Just to clarify, the fix is released into Mantic because it's fast to get into a devel release, but waiting on SRU process for other releases. So I would like users to be able to easily find the bugs and know they are being worked on before they take the time to file a proper bug report.

Any updates on this change? I'd imagine this could affect quite a few users casually looking for bugs in a package.
