Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-launchpad-bugs

Sometimes the apport retracer gets stuck in an infinite loop with retracing the same bug over and over again. The reason is that p-lp-bugs fails to remove tags sometimes:

$ python
>>> import launchpadbugs.connector as Connector
>>> Bug = Connector.ConnectBug()
>>> Bug.authentication='txt/lp-apport.cookie'
>>> b = Bug(182261)
>>> b.tags
['apport-crash', 'need-i386-retrace']
>>> b.tags.remove('need-i386-retrace')
>>> b.tags
['apport-crash']
>>> b.commit()
>>> b = Bug(182261)
>>> b.tags
['apport-crash', 'need-i386-retrace']

editing summary/description/tags fails if the bugreport has a 'nickname' set.

The reason for this is, that the 'nickname'-field has to be empty if one of these fields in /+edit is changed.
