Small correction: This is true for all packages, not only for bug system bugs.

Yes, because you are normally not supposed to use the second edit mode, it is only for users.

Not sure if it is a good thing to add the developer link to the mail and/or to send a separate mail to the developers.

Any comment?

Okay, but for additional comments from myself (or the reply to your question, which is in a different email "template" in the script), the link is "wrong".

Using different links in these two cases should be sufficient, no need to definie separate email templates.

The question is if it is a good thing to put the developer link in the user (which is the only) mail, or make it a private mail.

There are two cases:

(1) If the reports is answered:

ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
To reply, use the web interface found at
http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=7947&edit=2

(2) The email after I wrote the report:

Edit bug report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=7947&edit=2

If we have the possibility to differ between the cases whether a developer reported the bug or somebody else, we should modify the links accordingly. That would make life a little bit easier. ;-)

apparently this is fixed

> apparently this is fixed

No, it is not. Mark it as "Won't fix" (because of the huge changes that would be needed) if you want, but "Closed" is definitely wrong here, as there was only a discussion, but no code change.

I present to you evidence that this is working.  Here is an email I just received yesterday.  Note that "edit=1" at the bottom

 New Comment:

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on
pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET).

If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should
be live shortly.

Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release.

Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.

Description:
------------
The "quick fix" text for "fixed in release" generates for the "Web
Site" package this URL:
http://pear.php.net/get/Web Site

It should at least escape the space, but maybe also other characters.
(=> urlencode()?)

Keep it closed if you want, but the information mail that I've got after you closed this bug contained these lines:

> ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
> To reply, use the web interface found at
> http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=7947&edit=2

(note the "edit=2" which is still wrong)

ok, now you're starting to make sense - I didn't realize it was for bugs you had reported.  I have fixed this in CVS, and it will appear in the next release of pearweb
