Bug Description

When retargeting a bug, or reporting that one affects a distro, I am presented with a list of every registered distro. I can pick any one regardless of the fact that only 12 distros use Lp to manage bugs. I learn after I think I complete my task that that the distro does not use Lp.

Lp should not suggest that I can target a bug to a distro that does not use Lp.

They are not dupes. The case of targeting a bug to a series is a constraint issue. This bug is about the listing of every distro in the database when choosing a distro.
