Subject: Closing a blocker does not update bugreport.cgi for bug it blocks
Date: Thu, 26 May 2016 13:10:30 -0400

Package: debbugs.gnu.org
Severity: minor

If open bug#456 blocks bug#123, and you have the bugreport.cgi page for
#123 open, then close #456 and refresh #123's page, #456 is still listed
as a blocker. You have to shift-reload #123's page to get it to update.

Closing #456 does not *directly* affect the status of #123.
In contrast, removing #456 from the list of blockers does.
