Duplicate bugs show up in milestone bug listings

Bug #86498 reported by Tollef Fog Heen
4
Affects Status Importance Assigned to Milestone
Launchpad itself
Triaged
High
Unassigned

Bug Description

https://beta.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/herd-3 shows one bug (80500) which is marked as need info. This is incorrect, it is a duplicate of a bug marked as fix released + confirmed.

This is a problem when doing release management since there is no way for me to make sure the bugs are actually real bugs and not duplicates (short of doing the manual work of removing the milestone from the duplicate and adding it to the relevant tasks).

This is partially a duplicate of 55730, but I think that milestone lists are different enough that this warrants its own bug.

This might be a duplicate of bug 3796. (If so, its Importance should be higher than Low.)

Changed in launchpad:
importance: Undecided → Medium
status: Unconfirmed → Confirmed

Another example is bug 89070. This can cause needless duress during release time :) It's not really a dupe of 3796, but fixing that would fix this. Unlike 3796, this is not and RFE but real brokenness.

-> High since it causes distress at release time.
