what sense makes this?

a new upstream-release does not implicitly close any bug

on the other hand it makes hardly sense to hold back a update
not fixing all bugreports - this all makes no sense for me

I think there's a misunderstanding here.

Bodhi doesn't do anything at all with bugs that are not attached to an
update. How could it?

The bugs that are attached to an update are supposed to be fixed by
that update. If they are not, you should -1 karma the update and if
possible note in the bug that it's not fixed and help provide any info
to the maintainer in bug.

As discussed up thread, this is not the current policy and I'd really prefer people don't do this. -1 is a Serious Thing, not to be used lightly.

If an update claims to fix multiple bugs and *does* fix some of them and doesn't make anything worse, it should be +1ed, not -1ed. If that leads to some bugs that weren't actually fixed being closed, we can re-open them. We should not delay useful fixes going out due to bureaucratic details.

(The update submitter can edit the not-fixed bugs out of the update before it goes stable to avoid them being closed, if s/he is paying sufficient attention.)
