2006-11-03 04:23:04 Matthew Paul Thomas description When a bug report's summary is changed within five minutes of being created, Launchpad correctly combines the notifications into a single message. However, the Subject line of the message is the old summary instead of the new one. This happened to bug 70006, where the bug report was e-mailed with the Subject line "[Bug 70006] GnuMail doesn't add itself to the menus", despite the message containing notification of the summary changing to "Installing GnuMail doesn't add it to the Applicaitons menu". When a bug report's summary is changed, the Subject line of Launchpad's e-mail notification is the old summary instead of the new one. This happens whether the notification is for a new bug report (it happened when bug 70006 was created) or an existing one (it happened when bug 69919 was changed).

2006-11-03 07:43:14 Björn Tillenius description When a bug report's summary is changed, the Subject line of Launchpad's e-mail notification is the old summary instead of the new one. This happens whether the notification is for a new bug report (it happened when bug 70006 was created) or an existing one (it happened when bug 69919 was changed). When a bug report's summary is changed, and there's another change in the same notifcation e-mail before the summary change, the Subject line of Launchpad's e-mail notification is the old summary instead of the new one. This happens whether the notification is for a new bug report (it happened when bug 70006 was created) or an existing one (it happened when bug 69919 was changed). It only happens if you change something, for example the status of the bug, before you change the summary. This bug is caused by the batching of the change notifications. When the different notifications are batched together into a single e-mail, the subject is simply set to the first notification's subject.
