You are welcome to send bug reports about Wget to the author's email
address, hniksic@srce.hr
or to the mailing list at
wget@sunsite.auc.dk
. Please try to follow a few simple
guidelines before sending it.
-
Please try to ascertain that the behaviour you see really is a bug. If
Wget crashes, it's a bug. If Wget does not behave as documented,
it's a bug. If things work strange, but you are not sure about the way
they are supposed to work, it might well be a bug.
-
Try to repeat the bug in as simple circumstances as possible. E.g. if
Wget crashes on `wget -rLl0 -t5 -Y0 http://yoyodine.com -o
/tmp/log', you should try to see if it will crash with a reduced
argument list.
-
Please start Wget with `-d' option and send the log (or the
relevant parts of it). If Wget was compiled without debug support,
recompile it. It is much easier to trace bugs with bug support
on.
-
If Wget has crashed, try to run it in a debugger, e.g.
gdb
`which wget` core
and type where
to get the backtrace.
-
Find where the bug is, fix it and send me the patches. :-)
