Is there away to activate debug for reportbug(1)? > are you sending your report with 'gnus' maybe? No. reportbug(1) invokes editor "emacs". The messag is editd, saved, editor is exited. reportbug(1) sends the email.[1] Jari [1] For the BTS control messages I use Gnus + TinyDebian. For reporting bugs, I use command line reportbug(1) interface. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
