Cleaning Up Old Bugs

Doing several rounds of going through old bugs assigned to the YaST team, checking:

• Bugs that were fixed in the meantime (but not marked as fixed)

• Bugs that no longer exist because the relevant part was completely refactored

• Bugs that had become irrelevant in the meantime:

  • Obsolete YaST module
  • The configured subsystem was replaced by something new

• No response to requested info for a long time

• Very exotic feature or use case that we never found time for for many years

Overall the bug count was reduced way below the 500 that Bugzilla uses as a cut-off point for very long bug lists. At the time of this writing, it's 457 Bugs.
