Re: [CentOS-devel] should we expect to close CentOS Stream bugs as dups of RHEL?

Hi folks,

This RHBZ tracks a problem in CentOS Stream: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1901449

Today someone closed it as a duplicate of RHEL 8.4: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1901449

When is it appropriate to track a bug against RHEL 8.4 vs CentOS Stream?

What do we expect community members (inside and outside RH) to do in these cases?

In my opinion, bugs for CentOS Stream should not be closed in favor of RHEL 8.4 bugs (or any future unreleased RHEL 8.x bugs). Instead it should be the other way around. The pipeline for changes to RHEL means that RHEL 8.4 bugs should be closed as dupes of CentOS Stream ones.
