| 97 | If you find bugs, please submit a detailed bug report to the BusyBox mailing | ||
| 98 | list at busybox@mail.busybox.net. A well-written bug report should include a | ||
| 99 | transcript of a shell session that demonstrates the bad behavior and enables | ||
| 100 | anyone else to duplicate the bug on their own machine. The following is such | ||
| 101 | an example: | ||
| 102 | |||
| 103 | <pre> | ||
| 104 | To: busybox@mail.busybox.net | ||
| 105 | From: diligent@testing.linux.org | ||

| 107 | |||
| 108 | Package: BusyBox | ||
| 109 | Version: 1.00 | ||
| 110 | |||
| 111 | When I execute BusyBox 'date' it produces unexpected results. | ||
| 112 | With GNU date I get the following output: | ||
| 113 | 90 | ||
| 114 | $ date | 91 | If you simply need help with using or configuring BusyBox, please submit a |
| 115 | Fri Oct 8 14:19:41 MDT 2004 | 92 | detailed description of your problem to the BusyBox mailing list at <a |
| 93 | href="mailto:busybox@mail.busybox.net"> busybox@mail.busybox.net</a>. | ||
| 94 | Please do not send private email to Erik (the maintainer of BusyBox) asking | ||

| 96 | When we answer questions on the BusyBox mailing list, it helps everyone, | ||

| 116 | 98 | ||
| 117 | But when I use BusyBox date I get this instead: | 99 | <p> |
| 118 | 100 | ||
| 119 | $ date | 101 | The developers of BusyBox are busy people, and have only so much they can |
| 120 | illegal instruction | 102 | keep in their brains at a time. As a result, bug reports sometimes get |
| 103 | lost when posted to the mailing list. To prevent your bug report from | ||
| 104 | getting lost, if you find a bug in BusyBox, please use the <a | ||
| 105 | href="http://bugs.busybox.net/">BusyBox Bug and Patch Tracking System</a> | ||
| 106 | to submit a detailed bug report. | ||
| 121 | 107 | ||
| 122 | I am using Debian unstable, kernel version 2.4.27 on a x86 system, | 108 | <p> |
| 123 | and the latest uClibc from CVS. Thanks for the wonderful program! | ||
| 124 | 109 | ||
| 125 | -Diligent | 110 | The same also applies to patches... Regardless of whether your patch is a |
| 126 | </pre> | 111 | bug fix or adds shiney new features, please post your patch to the <a |
| 112 | href="http://bugs.busybox.net/">BusyBox Bug and Patch Tracking System</a> | ||
| 113 | to make certain it is properly considered. | ||
| 127 | 114 | ||
| 128 | Note the careful description and use of examples showing not only what BusyBox | ||
| 129 | does, but also a counter example showing what an equivalent GNU app does. Bug | ||
| 130 | reports lacking proper detail may never be fixed... Thanks for understanding. | ||
