Coincidentally, this past Wednesday there was a thread about this:

The maintainers should close off bug reports. The new update tool 
(bodhi) auto closes updates with a note if a particular package update 
has been marked as fixing the problem.

If you have reported any bugs which are currently resolved you can
close them off yourself with comments. If they were not reported by you
then you can just add comments and let the maintainers or bug triagers
close it.
