I am just lurking, and no great expert, but we had pretty much the same
problem with Bugzilla. It is essential to track which releases have
bugfixes and enhancements. For us, I just created a new table that
contains the bug_id and the version-fixed in. The listboxes for
version-fixed-in are populated with the same list as version, but I have
some (controversial) code that prevents the found-in and fixed-in fields
from using the same version. So we can now have a query which says
product X version 123 fixed in, and get the list that were fixed ( or
enhanced) between the previous version and the one listed. This
seems to work pretty well, though the implementation is crude.<br><br>
Do later versions of Bugzilla ( later than 2.13x ) support tracking bugs
that appear in multiple products|components|versions ? We still have that
problem with Bugzilla.<br><br>
Hope this helps a little<br><br>

<font face="arial" size=2>We have bugs that span releases. That is, they
are found in 1.0, fixed in 1.1. Right now they are logged with the
version field set to version in which they are (to be) fixed. How do I
generate a list of bugs that exist in 1.0? Some may be marked fixed in
1.1 and some may be marked as open and to be fixed in 1.1? The only bugs
that I can be sure were fixed in 1.0 are those whose version is still
1.0, but any bugs we decided could wait until 1.1 are now marked
1.1.<br>

<font face="arial" size=2>What I think is needed is a table of versions
associated with each bug. This could show all of the builds that were
ever tested for this problem and the results, something like<br>
