This is an unfortunate workaround which is necessary because an instance of dcrwallet will only recognise a ticket as revoked if it has done the revoke itself. If another wallet broadcasts the revoke then the ticket will forever be reported as missed/expired. This causes problems for vspd when a wallet outside of the vspd deployment revokes a ticket (eg. a users ticketbuyer wallet). I'm happy to include this slightly dirty workaround because this should no longer be an issue when the auto-revoke work in DCP-0009 lands.

Don't believe so, its a separate thing in dcrwallet. I discussed it with @jrick a long time ago (cant remember the details precisely) but my takeaway from the chat was that this is a limitation in dcrwallets capabilities rather than a bug. |

I'm fuzzy on these details as well. It sounds like some sort of tx filtering issue (in RPC mode), where wallets are not informed of the revocation? I don't see anything wrong with this workaround, but the wallet bug is a little surprising to me. |
