2009-07-15 09:59:56 Matthew Paul Thomas description Currently it is possible for a project timelord to mark a public bug as a duplicate of a hidden private bug. For example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+bug/394295 which was marked as a duplicate of: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354502 meaning that the original helpless reporter can end up seeing: **Not allowed here*** Sorry, you don't have permission to access this page. (until I unduped it to switch the affected projects around and now can't de-dup it---separate issue). This bug can probably be generalised that two bug reports should have the same privacy status to be allowed as duplicates. Currently it is possible for a project timelord to mark a public bug as a duplicate of a hidden private bug. For example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+bug/394295 which was marked as a duplicate of: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354502 meaning that the original helpless reporter can end up seeing: **Not allowed here*** Sorry, you don't have permission to access this page. (until I unduped it to switch the affected projects around and now can't de-dup it---separate issue). This bug can probably be generalised that two bug reports should have the same privacy status to be allowed as duplicates. If all existing cases of a public duplicate of a private bug report were fixed too, fixing this would eliminate the need to fix bug 157899.
