         if (Bugzilla->params->{'usebugaliases'}) {
             $item{'alias'} = type('string')->value($bug->alias);

Now, Bugzilla will give us information about the bugs that affect the specified bug (“Depends on” field).

Configure the plugin using the “Admin” panel - > “Configuration Settings” → “Plugin Settings” or edit file lib/plugins/bugzillaxmlrpc/conf/default.php
