315157 - attachment data is not exported when moving bugs to another DB

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bug Import/Export & Moving, defect)

Description

[Frédéric Buclin]

attachment data, included in <data></data> tags, is missing. Moreover, it seems that the 'encoding' attribute of <data> is missing too when the attachment is encoded.

Attachment: patch, v1

I'm not sure the attachment data should be included in the default fieldset...

I'm sure the bug moving code can specify that it wants it included, right?

huh? The code I'm changing *is* in the "move bugs" part of process_bug.cgi. Remember that move.pl no longer exists.

ghendricks and lpsolit have both pointed out that without this patch importxml.pl's usefulness is seriously compromised.  That, plus the relatively simple nature of the patch, justifies taking this during the freeze for 2.22.
