Bug - displaying links in searches

RT Developers
1

With RT 3.4.2, one of our users uncovered a bug with the display of
ticket links (parent/child relationships) in search results.

The problem is that the parent and child links are displayed the
wrong way round - Parent links under the Children column and vice versa.

In addition, the displayed value and URL are the wrong ones. For
example, if ticket 1000 is a parent of 1500, the ‘child’ link that is
displayed points to 1000 rather than 1500.

The following patch seems to solve both parts of the problem,
although I haven’t tested it out thoroughly with all the kinds of RT
relationships.

One more thing I noticed, although it may not be considered a bug, is
that links to deleted tickets are shown.
