The coreutils project uses a Bug Tracking System (aka BTS) for tracking bugs. It is an instantiation of the Debian BTS. A month ago on Sun, 30 Nov 2014 09:06:32 -0800 you sent in a bug report. It was assigned bug number Bug#19228 at that time. Today you sent in a duplicate of that previous report. It was assigned Bug#19476. As far as I can tell the report today was identical to the previous report. Therefore Pádraig merged the two bug ticket numbers together. They are identical and therefore merging duplicates is standard operating procedure for any bug tracking system. You can see the web interface to the bug log here: http://debbugs.gnu.org/19228 http://debbugs.gnu.org/19476 To browse all of the bugs that are being tracked that are associated with coreutils visit this URL: http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=coreutils After opening a bug ticket if you have further comments simply follow-up to the previous message and send those further comments to the existing bug ticket rather than opening a new ticket.
