# External bug statuses

#### IMPORTANT
This document has been migrated from help.launchpad.net as is, and has not
yet been revised. The content might be outdated, links and images could be
broken. We are aware and will fix any issues as soon as possible.

Bugs in free software projects are often tracked in more than one place. For example: a bug in Firefox may be tracked in Launchpad by the Ubuntu Mozilla Team and in Firefox’s own Bugzilla instance.

## Translating the status of external bug watches

Launchpad can track the status of the bug in Firefox’s external tracker and display its current status on the Ubuntu team’s bug report.

Bugzilla and Launchpad use different statuses to describe the stages of a bug’s lifecycle. It could quickly become confusing to use two different sets of bug statuses on the same page. Instead, Launchpad translates the status of the external bug report.
