The Debian Linux distribution has a bug tracking system which files details of bugs reported by users and developers. Each bug is given a number, and is kept on file until it is marked as having been dealt with.
Copies of this information are available at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/iwj10/debian-bugs/ and http://www.debian.org/Bugs/, but the latter is not up-to-date at present.
The HTML files, in a form suitable for using as part of an HTTP server document tree, are in the WebPages subdirectory of the Debian FTP archive.
The bug reports are also available by anonymous FTP from any Debian mirror
in the directory debian-bugs/html/
for hypertext form, and
in the directory debian-bugs/text/
for plain text form.
If you have found a bug in Debian, please read the instructions for reporting a bug in Debian. These instructions can be obtained in one of several ways:
debian-bugs/Reporting.html
. doc-debian
package installed.
The instructions are in the compressed (gzip'd) file
/usr/doc/debian/bug-reporting.txt.gz
. (Note that at the time of this writing, the files included in the
doc-debian
package are not up to date with recent changes in
the bug tracking system.)
