When marking a bug as a duplicate of another one, votes should be transferred to the new bug! Example: * old: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8216 (Reporter & 12 votes) * now: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12701 (not added as voters, not as CCs) Maybe just add reporter, CCs and voters to the new bugs CCs? By the way, is it already done with Reporter at least, maybe also with CCs, actually? If not, the same applies for Reporter+CCs, not just for voters.
At least the reporter gets carried over (not sure with CCs at the moment). Is Bugzilla 3.1 or 3.2 maybe capable of tranferring also voters, or is it a configuration issue?
Looks like a still-open issue upstream: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25950 Doesn't sound insanely hard to implement in theory, though I've not attempted to check the source. :)
Bulk-assigning open BZ issues to Fred.
Marking as LATER, pending an upstream fix, release and our eventual upgrade.
*** Bug 27378 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
WONTFIXing this, its a upstream issue that we will never likely patch ourselves and there isn't really any point to having it sit around in LATER forever. Feel free to reopen when its fixed or if someone actually wants to work on it.
