Hi bug tracking system also need the ability to mark a current bug as duplicate . Currently, all those bugs are marked as 'Bogus'. Also, it would be nice if we can have the ability to capture related bugs together. - Sriram

And we're not adding anymore statuses. Status is irrelevant for bug being related to something or not.

I think we should bring back the duplicate status for duplicate bugs, and include a bug number field to be submitted instead of sometimes writing a bug number as a comment that links if we remembered the syntax. And besides, the new Bugtracker already has the duplicate status much like its mother pearweb/bugs has. As for 'capturing related bugs', I imagine the [optional] tagging would help with that... or do you have something specific in mind? Regards, Philip
