Error when attempting to add a Version with the name of an existing archived Version

XMLWordPrintable

      Steps to reproduce
      1. create an archive a Version;
      2. create/edit an issue in the respective JIRA project;
      3. in the Fix Version or Affects Version field, type in the name of the archived Version - JIRA will indicate it's a new Version and accept the new value;
      4. attempt to save the changes.
        Result: an error is thrown:

        A version with this name already exists in this project.

      Expected result: at step 3, JIRA should indicate that the Version name exists and that the Version is archived. The version should be added to the field.
