Looking at the indexdb, I saw +that the page was not included in the `depends_simple` of the bugs page. + +I was able to replicate the problem locally by starting off with the page +not marked done (when it did appear in the bugs page `depends_simple` +(appropriatly as a link dependency, since a change to the page removing the +link would make it match)), then removing the done link. + +At that point, it vanished from `depends_simple`. Presumably because +the main (pagespec) depends for the bugs page now matched it, as a content +dependency. But, it seems to me it should still be listed in +`depends_simple` here. This, I think, is the cause of the bug. + +Then re-add the done link, and the dependency calc code breaks down, +not noticing that bugs dependeded on the page and needs to be updated. +--[[Joey]] |
