Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 56564
Votes are lost when issue is closed as duplicate
Last modified: 2008-05-17 23:31:58 UTC
Important outstanding issues tend to get reported multiple times. When the duplication is found, one of the reports gets closed as a duplicate. The problem is that the votes for the closed report do not seem to get transferred to the open report, resulting in possible underappreciation of the importance of an issue to the community. The workaround is to find everyone who voted on a report and get them to switch their votes. An example is issue 4849, with 32 votes, which was closed as a duplicate of issue 20496, with 13 votes.
