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.

xzip ( http://tukaani.org/xz/ ) can be used to reduce the size of the downloads! Please consider those in remote locations who have only slow/intermittent/expensive internet access.

I second this.

Arch linux a while back switched over and it's been great.

The ratios are awesome
