Derek,

There are 67 GnuCash bugs in Gnome with something in the See Also field:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?f1=see_also&list_id=310012&o1=regexp&order=Bug%20Number&product=GnuCash&query_format=advanced&v1=.%2B <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?f1=see_also&list_id=310012&o1=regexp&order=Bug%20Number&product=GnuCash&query_format=advanced&v1=.+>

The earliest one is https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402289 <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402289>, much later than the ones you’ve imported.

https://bugzilla.gnucash.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?j_top=OR&order=Bug%20Number&query_format=advanced <https://bugzilla.gnucash.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?j_top=OR&order=Bug%20Number&query_format=advanced> returns only 103 bugs. Are you sure you imported 105?

If possible it would be nice to convert all of the assignees and QA contacts to the pseudo-users (e.g. gnucash-core-maint at gnucash.bugs <mailto:gnucash-core-maint at gnucash.bugs>) instead of the many developers who’re no longer working on GnuCash.

Attachments aren’t displayed in the browser even when they’re plain text, see https://bugzilla.gnucash.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=4&action=edit <https://bugzilla.gnucash.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=4&action=edit>, "The attachment is not viewable in your browser due to security restrictions enabled by your Bugzilla administrator.”

I’ll poke at it some more tomorrow.

Regards,
John Ralls
