I appear to be unable to close certain bugs lately, while others work fine.
One earlier example was #205163, which I was trying to close as it was fixed
a long time ago.  Then yesterday closing #379237 and #387587 worked, but in
the same message my attempt to close #378102 was rejected.  With both #20516
3
and #378102 I got a bounce message saying that ###-done@bugs.debian.org was
an "unknown user".

I tried sending a mail to owner@bugs.debian.org about #205163 several days
ago, which I haven't gotten any response to yet.  Does anybody else have any
idea what's going on?  Anybody else who's run into this?  Maybe, just a
random guess, it's not working on bug numbers containing a 0?

#205163 and #378102 are both archived (and therefore by definition also
closed). Modifications to archived bugs aren't possible, so debbugs
won't accept mail for them.

[#205163 was closed in October 2003 so would have been archived some
time in November 2003. #378102 was closed in July 2006 whilst archiving
was disabled and finally archived on June 17th this year.]

FWIW, I'm guessing the two bug numbers may have been typos as #378102 is
a mysql security bug and #205163 a translation for gnapster whereas your
closure message refers to gcc.

AFAICT, your message has not arrived at owner@b.d.o; but in any event,
your query appears to have been correctly answered.

OK, sorry for the noise.  You're completely correct, I actually meant #37801
2
and #215063.  I guess I should have checked more carefully before putting my
foot in my mouth.
