515214 - can't request/set blocking-fennec or blocking1.9.3 on enter_bug.cgi

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

The "blocking-fennec" flag can't be requested ("?") from that form. The only drop down entry is a blank space. Works fine from show_bug.

Also applies to the other blocking-1.9.x pseudo-flags, but not, interestingly, the status-1.9.2 pseudo-flag.

In addition, if you clone an existing bug, the otherwise unselectable pseudo-flags *are* selectable!?

OK, I've been poking around at this for a couple hours, and finally tracked down the problem to a chunk of code that's required for accessing a couple functions from the template when called from enter_bug which never got backported.  The "Bug ID Reference" field type is similarly broken, for whatever it's worth.  Bugzilla 3.4 has this supporting code, and backporting it at this point is going to be a pain when we're intending to upgrade to 3.4 in a few weeks anyway, so I'm just going to defer on this for now, and I'll make sure it gets dealt with correctly in the 3.4 upgrade.

don't think this will fix it, but it's needed...
