Debian bug report logs - index
These pages give access to bugs submitted to debian-bugs but not yet
marked as done, and to bugs marked as done but not yet purged from the
database (this happens 14 days after the last message
relating to the report). The files here are checked every 30 minutes
(last update 23:43:02 GMT Fri 23 Jun).
There are also shorter summary indices sorted by
package name and
bug reference number; these
list only the outstanding bugs, and do so more briefly.
The primary site is
at the
University of Cambridge in the UK;
a mirror (frequently updated) is available
at the
Central Michigan University in the US.
Instructions for reporting a
bug are available, as well as
information for Debian
developers and some thoughts
about the future development of the system. There are
other ways of accessing the logs for those
without World Wide Web access.
The Debian developers' mailing lists are
archived.
