Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 122434
Using of Alias breaks "Depends on" Tree
Last modified: 2017-05-20 09:42:44 UTC
Steps how to reproduce: 1. Go to Bug 121420 (Bug [sidebar]) 2. Click link 'Show dependency tree' > Dependency tree appears Expected: 100 or more entries Actual: only 3 or so ! Additional info: I first thought that only bugs where "Blocks" has been added after Alias creation might be shown, but it seems to be something different: * Alias Creation: 2013-06-01 16:32:01 BST * Bug 122144 "Blocks ...": 2013-04-23 12:11:18 BST * Bug 122432 "Blocks ...": 2013-06-01 16:32:01 BST * Bug 122433 "Blocks ...": 2013-06-01 18:51:03 BST
Might be a general Bugzilla bug?
I'm not sure there is something wrong here (but I may miss something, especially on the "Alias" stuff). This is what I see: 1) In https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121420 "Depends on" has 115 issues listed. This is expected. Apparently we've done a very good job here, since only 3 are still open and 112 are closed. 2) The "Show dependency tree" link leads to https://issues.apache.org/ooo/showdependencytree.cgi?id=121420&hide_resolved=1 that shows only the 3 open bugs, under the title "Bug 121420 depends on 3 open bugs". This seems fine too. 3) If I manually put "hide_resolved=0" in the URL, i.e., I open https://issues.apache.org/ooo/showdependencytree.cgi?id=121420&hide_resolved=0 then I see all the 115 bugs. The title changes to "Bug 121420 depends on 115 bugs". This seems fine too. I haven't bothered checking in the Bugzilla UI the way to get to the same list without manually editing the URL. Does this explain the behavior? I still can't see how the Alias fits in the picture, but the difference between #2 and #3 could be enough as an explanation.
@Andrea Pescetti That's exactly the description. I simply remembered to have seen quite a lot of bugs in the tree some time ago, after the "alias" change (what has no influence at all) I tried again and saw the few remaining bugs in the tree. Was afraid that I had broken something instead of simply reading the URL Thx for investigation, so INVALID!
