I agree that this is problematic, but at this stage it's not
realistic to make this change in stable, since however it is
implemented (as per your patch or the change already made in rt 3.8)
it has the potential to break existing installations which might
be relying on this functionality.

Sorry that we couldn't help this time.

Dominic.

Subject: closing bugs reported against ancient request-tracker3.8

Date: Sun, 3 Jul 2016 12:18:41 +0200

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of
request-tracker (3.8), that was last released with Debian 6.0 (squeeze).
But even squeeze-lts has now reached end-of-life and is no longer supported.
The bug is assumed to be fixed (or no longer relevant) in newer
request-tracker releases and therefore I'm closing this report now. If the
problem is still reproducible in the currently supported versions
(request-tracker4), feel free to provide more information, reopen
and reassign this bug report.
