<h2 class="chapter">14 Reporting Bugs</h2>

<p>Please send bug reports to the current maintainers by electronic
mail.  The address to use is &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">&lt;bug-stow@gnu.org&gt;</span></samp>&rsquo;.  Please
include:

     <ul>
<li>the version number of Stow (&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">stow --version</span></samp>&rsquo;);

     <li>the version number of Perl (&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">perl -v</span></samp>&rsquo;);

     <li>the system information, which can often be obtained with &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">uname
-a</span></samp>&rsquo;;

     <li>a description of the bug;

     <li>the precise command you gave;

     <li>the output from the command (preferably verbose output, obtained by
adding &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">--verbose=3</span></samp>&rsquo; 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>).
