Presumably Vianney is looking for a way to programmatically resolve bugs.

Perhaps, although if it's a question about programmatic access to 
Bugzilla's APIs, it might be considered something of a development 
question, even if it's not about the development of Bugzilla proper.

In any case, it isn't trivial, since process_bug.cgi expects requesters 
to submit many fields of information about the bug; it isn't satisfied 
to be given merely the information being changed.  The change multiple 
bugs form works around this by submitting a special "is not being 
changed" value for fields not being modified.  You may be able to do the 
same.
