APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If a baseline set definition contains a module which has been
  purged, when all valid modules are added to a set, that set does
  not get automatically closed.
  
  To recreate:
  
   - create a project containing 3 modules
   - create a baseline set definition containing all 3 modules
   - delete and purge one of the modules
   - create a baseline set using the definition
   - add the remaining 2 modules to the set
  
  At this point, since all valid modules have been added to the
  set, it should get closed automatically, this does not happen.
  
  Workaround: close the set manually (or using the DXL close()
  perm).
  
  Attempts to get the definition to refresh itself e.g. by adding
  and removing other modules, did not suceeed, the record of the
  purged module remains in the definition internally, and so the
  problem will continue to manifest itself when using that
  definition.
