<h2 class="chapter">14 Reporting Bugs</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Please send bug reports to the current maintainers by electronic
|
|
mail. The address to use is ‘<samp><span class="samp"><bug-stow@gnu.org></span></samp>’. Please
|
|
include:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the version number of Stow (‘<samp><span class="samp">stow --version</span></samp>’);
|
|
|
|
<li>the version number of Perl (‘<samp><span class="samp">perl -v</span></samp>’);
|
|
|
|
<li>the system information, which can often be obtained with ‘<samp><span class="samp">uname
|
|
-a</span></samp>’;
|
|
|
|
<li>a description of the bug;
|
|
|
|
<li>the precise command you gave;
|
|
|
|
<li>the output from the command (preferably verbose output, obtained by
|
|
adding ‘<samp><span class="samp">--verbose=3</span></samp>’ to the Stow command line).
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are really keen, consider developing a minimal test case and
|
|
creating a new test. See the <samp><span class="file">t/</span></samp> directory in the source for
|
|
lots of examples.
|
|
|
|
<p>Before reporting a bug, please read the manual carefully, especially
|
|
<a href="Known-Bugs.html#Known-Bugs">Known Bugs</a>, to see whether you're encountering
|
|
something that doesn't need reporting.
|
|
(see <a href="Conflicts.html#Conflicts">Conflicts</a>).
