Hi,

Mark Hymers took too long to re-upload the old monolithic ia32-libs
and ia32-libs-gtk packages so that bugs closed by ia32-libs-tools
taking over ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk have now been archived.
The BTS did at least try to reopen and revert all the bugs affected by
reversing the transition but it seems to only have been partially
successfull. Some bugs still have the "Fixed in version
ia32-libs-tools/19" tag attached and they all seem to be still
archived despite the version tracking showing they are still open.

Would it be possible to unarchive the following bugs and remove their
fixed headers?

Yes, and you can do it. See

Shouldn't that be fixed in general so the next package where this
happens debbugs behaves correctly?

reopen 540035
# I may have already written code to do this??? Not sure now.
retitle 540035 consider adding cronjob to unarchive bugs which are unfixed (RC only?)
severity 540035 wishlist
tag 540035 moreinfo
clone 540035 -1
retitle -1 control currently will act on archived bugs in some cases (#435455)
severity -1 important
thanks

It's not possible for the BTS to see the future, unfortunatly; if bugs
that were closed get archived, and a new version is released which
means that they're no longer fixed, nothing currently goes through and
unarchives them.

I've kind of been thinking about doing this for at least RC bugs, but
I haven't come to a complete decision yet, so reopening and diverting
this bug for that.

However, it's still good that you brought this back for me to look at,
as in this case there is another bug, as it should never had been
possible add another entry to the bug log of an archived bug as is
showing up in #435455 (and probably others.)
