288461 - sanitycheck.cgi should permit to clean all invalid references to deleted bugs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Administration, task)

Description

[Frédéric Buclin]

Bug 86328 is about deleting bugs and all references to them correctly. But it
does not handle bugs already removed, leaving a lot of warnings when running
sanitycheck.cgi. When sanitycheck.cgi detects references to deleted bugs, it
should offer a link to clean all references to them (see the list of tables
concerned in my patch in bug 86328).

I mark bug 86328 as a blocker of this one as we have to be consistent in the way
we treat deleted bugs.

a link is displayed if bad references to bugs.bug_id are found, allowing you to
remove all these invalid references.

Hmm, since we just got working delete code, I suppose this helps people who use
it to clean up after their older deletion attempts...  Otherwise, this is
pushing it for 2.20
