Bug Description
The launchpad janitor has just marked bug #798509 'confirmed'.
This is not helpful given that the bug is marked as a duplicate, and the master bug has already been fixed. It just generates email noise.

This is an un-caught side effect of the auto-confirmation code we added (for Ubuntu). Its not a regression because this isn't something we previously offered going wrong, but it is unanticipated fallout from the change to do auto-confirmation.
I'm triaging this high for now, but that is still quite a long queue - I suggest escalating via stakeholders if this is a significant issue. (As we've only just heard it now after a month or so of operation, I don't believe it is).
