If you post a link to a rh-bugzilla, I will of course check if that one is still open or how it is closed. I'm not stupid, I just need some silver linen threads to find how a regression is solved. I.e. I don't want a "fixed". I want a "commit xyz fixed this" or a "I can't reproduce the bug anymore". Either is fine.
