Bug Description

I want to remove the 'live-migration' dependency from https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-kvm/+spec/kvm-post-1-0 (I added it by mistake). However, launchpad silently refuses:
 * click 'Remove dependency'
 * select 'Live migration' in the dropdown
 * click 'Continue'
 * launchpad displays the kvm-post-1-0 blueprint again but if you scroll down you'll see it has failed to actually remove the dependency

Other dependency add/remove seems to work, but this one does not. Speculation: is it because the dependent blueprint is superseded?

Why has this bug been marked as a duplicate of 1087223?
Bug 1087223:
 * the UI is confusing if you have two dependencies with the same title
This bug:
 * it is not possible to remove this dependency, launchpad won't let me
You can see the effects of this bug even when there is no same-title dependency present.

They're completely different issues, which is why I filed two bugs.
