By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Nick Leverton 2011-10-03 07:29:03 CDT 
ktalkd-trinity recommends ytalk, and ytalk depends on some package providing talkd which is a standard (non-trinity) package.  Formerly this was provided by ktalkd, but ktalkd-trinity instead provides talkd-trinity.

I think that ktalkd-trinity should be Provides: talkd, not Provides: talkd-trinity.

Yes, I've just checked on 3.5.13.2.  In fact by comparing with ktalk 3.5.10, I can see that ktalkd-trinity should be all of

Replaces: talkd
Provides: talkd
Conflicts: talkd


It's just a packaging change of course.  But IIRC (admittedly it's years since I've used talk much) only one package at a time can act as talkd to other talk clients, and this is the Debian way of specifying that.
