That's not /really/ what Fix Committed is meant to be used for (see my
other posts regarding RCS support), but for now, it'll do.

I'll explain my question more broadly. Let's say there is a bug reported
against Ubuntu eog. Now we know that eog is actually packaged from

    https://edge.launchpad.net/eog

Becase of:

    https://edge.launchpad.net/eog/+distributions

We also have a code import of EOG:

    https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/eog/head

(Yeah, it's stopped but I'm fixing the RCS details to get it to restart.
Imagine it's running normally just to help me out.)

It would be pretty cool if you could actually peek at the EOG RCS log
and see "ah, they fixed this bug upstream already". I'm not sure what UI
we'd offer for this, which is why I was asking.
