I think this issue relates to an API/permission change on the freedesktop, but may be an issue where the warning is not removed when after it had been updated. I can see that the remote bug does link back to the Launchpad bug.

Oh I think I see the related problem here. When Lp checks freedesktop, to does not get a bug number back, so it tries to create it, but it already exists, so Lp might get the warning again. There is nothing wrong with the collected data from the remote bug, the issue is that Lp is doing unnecessary work then showing an warning about then the effort fails.

Can you help with this problem?
