With respect - there are three problems with your argumentation. 1. When a bug is not a perfect dupe - you still need to discuss closing a bug with someone, even if you believe they should obviously prefer this possibility. Both because they might surprise you with additional information and a s matter of courtesy. 2. Utilitarian motivation. The question is what the truth is about the relation between the bugs, more than what might be end up being more expedient for me. 3. You've presented a false dichotomy. I prefer "let's mark it a dependent of another bug" - which does about the same to convince the relevant person to fix the other bug IIANM.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
