Hello.

Sometimes I meet a situation, when a bug was confirmed for old
LibreOffice version but can not be reproduced in new one. In
QA/Bugzilla/FAQ
(https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla/FAQ#How_to_terminate_a_Bug_if_it_can.27t_be_reproduced_any_longer)
it is written:

“If a bug has been confirmed, but the problem vanished with a later
LibreOffice version, do not use Resolved Fixed, what is reserved for
bugs with a real reviewed Fix. The appropriate Status for a Bug where
the problem simply vanished is Resolved WORKSFORME.”

But in some bugreports there is another opinion, for example:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51823

What is current QA-team position?

Best regards,
Alexandr
