I like the idea of [[tips/integrated_issue_tracking_with_ikiwiki]], and I do so on several wikis. However, as far as I can tell, ikiwiki has no functionality which can represent dependencies between bugs and allow pagespecs to select based on dependencies. For instance, I can't write a pagespec which selects all bugs with no dependencies on bugs not marked as done. --[[JoshTriplett]]

Okie - I've had a quick attempt at this. Initial patch attached. This one doesn't quite work.
And there is still a lot of debugging stuff in there.
At the moment I've added a new preprocessor plugin, `definepagespec`, which is like
shortcut for pagespecs. To reference a named pagespec, use `~` like this:
[ [!definepagespec name="bugs" spec="bugs/* and !*/Discussion"]]
[ [!definepagespec name="openbugs" spec="~bugs and !link(done)"]]
[ [!definepagespec name="readybugs" spec="~openbugs and !link(~openbugs)"]]
At the moment the problem is in `match_link()` when we're trying to find a sub-page that
matches the appropriate page spec. There is no good list of pages available to iterate over.
foreach my $nextpage (keys %IkiWiki::pagesources)
does not give me a good list of pages. I found the same thing when I was working on
this todo [[todo/Add_a_plugin_to_list_available_pre-processor_commands]].
> I'm not sure why iterating over `%pagesources` wouldn't work here, it's the same method
> used by anything that needs to match a pagespec against all pages..? --[[Joey]]
>> My uchecked hypothesis is that %pagesources is created after the refresh hook.
>> I've also been concerned about how globally defined pagespec shortcuts would interact with

Immediately below is a patch which seems to basically work. Lots of debugging code is still there
and it needs a cleanup, but I thought it worth posting at this point. (I was having problems
with old style glob lists, so i just switched them off for the moment.)
The following three inlines work for me with this patch:
Bugs:
[ [!inline pages="define(~bugs, bugs/* and ! */Discussion) and ~bugs" archive="yes"]]
OpenBugs:
[ [!inline pages="define(~bugs, bugs/* and ! */Discussion) and define(~openbugs,~bugs and !link(done)) and ~openbugs" archive="yes"]]
ReadyBugs:
[ [!inline pages="define(~bugs, bugs/* and ! */Discussion) and define(~openbugs,~bugs and !link(done)) and define(~readybugs,~openbugs and !link(~openbugs)) and ~readybugs" archive="yes"]]
