Launchpad lib gives wrong results when searching tasks with a given status

[Ara Pulido]

I was trying to use launchpadlib to search for all bugs (with a certain status) with tags "blocks-hwcert" and "precise" in Ubuntu.

This is what I did:

First, without status:

ubuntu = launchpad.distributions['ubuntu']
tasks = ubuntu.searchTasks(tags=['precise', 'blocks-hwcert'], tags_combinator="All")

for task in tasks:
   ....: print task.bug

https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/830949
https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/888219
https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/834731
https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/926136

print tasks[3].status
Incomplete

Then with status:

search_status = ["New","Incomplete","Confirmed","Triaged","In Progress","Fix Committed"]

tasks = ubuntu.searchTasks(tags=['precise', 'blocks-hwcert'], tags_combinator="All")

for task in tasks:
   ....: print task.bug

https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/830949
https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/888219
https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/bugs/834731

========== Expected results ==================

The Incomplete tasks also show in the second query, as Incomplete was explicitly marked for the search

Can't reproduce this. Note that tasks[3] is currently 'Confirmed'. Perhaps its status changed while testing.

>>> ubuntu = lp.distributions['ubuntu']
>>> tasks = ubuntu.searchTasks(tags=['precise', 'blocks-hwcert'], tags_combinator="All")
>>> for task in tasks:
... print task.bug

fwiw this is a dup of a server side bug - launchpadlib isn't doing
anything wrong here.

I can reproduce it. As a workaround, you can use

    ubuntu.searchTasks(status=['Incomplete (with response)', 'Incomplete (without response)'])
