The issue types options used in the drop down box when reporting a new issue are taken from any project. Removing an issue type has no effect, as the issue types are taken from other projects anyway. Note that this poses the risk that reported issues are tagged using tags from other projects. This may be dangerous when these tags are removed from other projects as this would yield an inconsistent database.

I uploaded a new version of YellowGrass as soon as possible, which fixes this problem.

Several issues have been reported since the erroneous version was released, each of these may (and most probably are) affected by this bug. That means that they refer tags from other projects. Affected (or infected :) ) issues are:

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/31

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/32

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/33

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/34

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/35

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/36

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Acoda/37

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/YellowGrass/153

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/StrategoXT/843

https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Spoofax/267

I fixed the first 8 by removing the issue type tag and adding it again. The newly added tag will surely belong to the project. Despite the fact that they are presumably fixed, I included the list above in case I missed something and there are more consequences. I could not fix the last two as I do not have access to these projects. I will contact Lennart to fix these.

All affected issues are fixed now.
