 Status:           Bogus
 Bug Type:         *General Issues
 Operating System: linux
 PHP Version:      4.3.0
 New Comment:

Why has this bug been marked as Bogus when it's a Duplicate?  It seems
to be increasingly common for this to happen -- when did it become
standard policy to set duplicate report to Bogus? This is very
confusing, when there is still a Duplicate status in the system. 
Surely, if a bug is a duplicate of another, it's far better to set its
status to Duplicate, so that it's obvious from a brief look that it
*is* a duplicate (and it shows up in search results as such).  Setting
it to Bogus is bogus, because it's patently not Bogus if it's the same
issue as an Open bug.

And even if it is policy to set duplicate report to Bogus, that policy
should be prominently documented, so that people don't get in a huff
about bugs being dismissed as not a bug when their duplicate report is
set to Bogus (which has happened more than once already!).

Cheers!

Mike

See bug #21658, it's the same so this one is not needed -> bogus.

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. Because of this, we hope you add your comments
to the existing bug instead.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

sprintf(%.3f,1.07507507508) = 1.000
sprintf(%.3f,1.98498498498) = 0.000
sprintf(%.3f,0.318318318318) = 0.000
sprintf(%.3f,0.90990990991) = 1.000
sprintf(%.3f,0.660660660661) = 0.000
