Both bug links refer to bug reports which have been closed already. And while we
are at this (as I said in some other reply) in general one submission to the
mailing list should be for a single bug report. Either duplicate them or create
a new bug report to keep everything together.
Also since the old bug reports were closed a while ago, is this something that
should have gone to Cosmic, too? Or even upstream?
