If you encounter a bug, misfeature, or missing feature in GLib, please
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
file a bug report on
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
<ulink url="http://bugzilla.gnome.org">http://bugzilla.gnome.org</ulink>.
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
We'd also appreciate reports of incomplete or misleading information in
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
the GLib documentation; file those against the "docs" component of the "glib"
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
product in Bugzilla.

Don't hesitate to file a bug report, even if you think we may know
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
about it already, or aren't sure of the details. Just give us as much
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
information as you have, and if it's already fixed or has already been
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
discussed, we'll add a note to that effect in the report.

The bug tracker should definitely be used for feature requests, it's
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
not only for bugs. We track all GLib development in Bugzilla, so it's
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
the way to be sure the GLib developers won't forget about an issue.

If you develop a bugfix or enhancement for GLib, please file that in
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
Bugzilla as well. Bugzilla allows you to attach files; please attach a
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
patch generated by the <command>diff</command> utility, using the
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
<option>-u</option> option to make the patch more readable. All patches
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
must be offered under the terms of the GNU LGPL license, so be sure you
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
are authorized to give us the patch under those terms.

If you want to discuss your patch before or after developing it, mail
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
<ulink url="mailto:gtk-devel-list@gnome.org">gtk-devel-list@gnome.org</ulink>.
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
But be sure to file the Bugzilla report as well; if the patch is only on the
|
|
Packit |
ae235b |
list and not in Bugzilla, it's likely to slip through the cracks.
