[fossil-users] how does one submit a bug report?

2012-04-18 Thread Miles Fidelman

Hi Folks,

After going through some hair with the ./configure script, I thought I'd 
open a ticket listing some things that seem broken.  Unfortunately, 
there doesn't seem to be a open ticket selection under tickets on 
http://www.fossil-scm.org/.  One doesn't seem to become available when 
one logs in anonymously, and there doesn't seem to be a register link.


So... how does one report a bug report?

Specifically, on Debian Squeeze, building from source 
(fossil-src-20120317175325 from 
http://www.fossil-scm.org/download.html), ./configure seems to require 
that the following be installed:

zlib1g-dev
libssl-dev

These are not referenced in the BUILD.txt file, and ./configure simply 
complains about not finding zlib and openssl, even though they are both 
installed. make -f Makefile.classic similarly runs into problems (at 
least with openssl, I'd already installed zlib1g-dev at the point I 
tried it - at least its error messages are a bit more detailed - can't 
find openssl/.h for several files - which is how I tracked down that 
they're in libssl-dev).

Post to this mailing list.

We disabled anonymous bug reporting for Fossil (and for SQLite) because the
vast majority of bugs reported there were really support requests.

I need to enhance the bug reporting mechanism in Fossil so that new bug
reports are ephemeral until verified by a registered user.  Then we can
reenable anonymous bug reporting, and simply delete all of the noise and
spam as it arrives.  That's on the to-do list.
