Description

We have a problem with the Gerrit Trigger configuration in many Jenkins jobs.

In the advanced section (in the top of the gerrit trigger configuration) we have marked the checkbox "Not Built" in "Skip Vote".

The problem comes when editing this configuration.

The "Skip Vote", "Aborted" checkbox is automatically being selected when opening the configuration.

It does not work to unmark and save the change. It is still set. This can be seen in the configuration history. This is really a problem for us. I have not managed to find a way around this problem. No difference using Chrome or Firefox.

Note (not sure it matters):

The configuration is configured with a quite big RegExp trigger, >7k characters with many different projects to trigger on.

There is also a second trigger for some specific files in one particular git.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Gerrit Trigger configuration using the reported Jenkins 2.462.1 and plugin 2.41.1 versions, focusing on the Skip Vote > Aborted checkbox. Compare the saved configuration with the configuration history after clearing and reopening it. Done means the checkbox stays cleared after saving and reopening.
