Hard to say without you giving details about what your workaround was.

In my experience,
gnome developers generally use upstream bugzilla almost exclusively

fedora kde-sig usually recommends:
* if you think it a distro-specific issue, use bugzilla.redhat.com
* if you think it an upstream issue, use bugs.kde.org
* and if in doubt, try distro/downstream bugzilla first.
