Whiteboard: DUPME
Do you know the bug# that it's a duplicate of?
I would say bug 59548. But we have also bug 99217 which suffer from the same
problem. maybe I should set those 2 bugs as dependent of bug 59548!
Depends on: 59548
Whiteboard: DUPME
Maybe we should set the status to "Resolve bug, mark it as duplicate of bug #"?
bug 137701 has the newsgroup dupes, duping to that bug
