The "1) I am, 2) I see, 3) I did, 4) I ask"...
1) I am : description of the relevant background informations needed to undestand/analyse your problem :
(versions of : OS, Fink, X11, and such information)
2) I see : description of the problem itself :
(what did not work, show installation/execution failure report, maybe the config.log if needed...)
3) I did : how did I try to solve the problem (and if you think it�s important why it did not work - see 2- ) :
( removing conflicting package, re-installing some program, updating some libraries...)
4) I ask : usually straightforward (what do I want ? ):
(I want this program to work, I want to remove that program, I want to ...)
Optional : one can describe here what he�s planing to do next if he does not receive advices, or his hypothesis about the causes of the problem.
Well, I guess this proposal could be expanded and maybe detailed more, but I think this "1) I am, 2) I see, 3) I did, 4) I ask" principle could be useful.
