Re: rt://46333 links to rt.perl.org not rt.cpan.org

I made that change on 2016-12-21 because linking to rt.cpan.org by ID seemed to be broken. In fact, it seems rt.cpan.org fails for some IDs, rt.perl.org fails for other IDs. Examples:

  86969:  at cpan (OK)  - at perl (ERR) 
  130361: at cpan (ERR) - at perl (OK)

Can someone elucidate what's going on? Maybe we can "code around it". :-)

I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.

I think not every bug ID is a visible ticket on each of the bug trackers. Think of spam tickets which might use up an ID. The perl.org RT instance is for bugs in Perl while the CPAN RT instance is for bugs in CPAN modules. So the two URLs will lead to different tickets for the same ticket ID, and should stay that way.
