GNO Bug Reports

+
+ +A critical part of GNO development is user feedback. What works +well? What needs improvement? What is broken? +By telling GNO developers this information, you are much +more likely to see improvements. +

+ +The traditional method of sending in bug reports is to email the +developer. While this mechanism is simple, it has a few drawbacks: +

+ +The GNO Consortium now provides a common bug reporting and tracking system. +While it is primarily intended for bug reports on the GNO base distribution, +reports are also welcome on programs that are not part of the base +distribution (but that still run under GNO). This system is accessible +both though the web and through email. + +
+

Bug Reports -- Web Access

+ +The recommended way to submit GNO bug reports is to use the web-based +bug reporting package. There are two ways to access this system: + +Note that this reporting system is accessible from Lynx, but is more +readable using a graphical browser. This is unfortunate, but fixing +this problem will require modifications to the bug tracking software +itself. This will be addressed when time permits. + +
+

Bug Reports -- Email Access

+ +If you prefer to send your bug reports via regular email, you can +send them to +gno-bugs@trenco.gno.org. +If you do this method, please ensure that your subject line contains +a concise description of the problem, such as +
+	open(2) doesn't set errno
+or
+	rm broken for HFS volumes
+
+

+ +When sending your bug reports in email, please also include the following +information, in addition to your informative subject line: +

+

+ +Note that bug reports to the above address will go straight into +the reporting system. If your bug report contains proprietary information, +you should send it to + +gno-bugs-admin@trenco.gno.org +
