| 855 | Simplest usage: run "$0", and follow the prompts. |
| 856 | |
| 857 | Options: |
| 858 | |
| 859 | -v Include Verbose configuration data in the report |
| 860 | -f File containing the body of the report. Use this to |
| 861 | quickly send a prepared message. |
| 862 | -F File to output the resulting mail message to, instead of mailing. |
| 863 | -S Send without asking for confirmation. |
| 864 | -a Address to send the report to. Defaults to `$address'. |
| 865 | -c Address to send copy of report to. Defaults to `$cc'. |
| 866 | -C Don't send copy to administrator. |
| 867 | -s Subject to include with the message. You will be prompted |
| 868 | if you don't supply one on the command line. |
| 869 | -b Body of the report. If not included on the command line, or |
| 870 | in a file with -f, you will get a chance to edit the message. |
| 871 | -r Your return address. The program will ask you to confirm |
| 872 | this if you don't give it here. |
| 873 | -e Editor to use. |
| 874 | -t Test mode. The target address defaults to `$testaddress'. |
| 875 | -d Data mode. This prints out your configuration data, without mailing |
| 876 | anything. You can use this with -v to get more complete data. |
| 877 | -A Don't send a bug received acknowledgement to the return address. |
| 878 | -ok Report successful build on this system to perl porters |
| 879 | (use alone or with -v). Only use -ok if *everything* was ok: |
| 880 | if there were *any* problems at all, use -nok. |
| 881 | -okay As -ok but allow report from old builds. |
| 882 | -nok Report unsuccessful build on this system to perl porters |
| 883 | (use alone or with -v). You must describe what went wrong |
| 884 | in the body of the report which you will be asked to edit. |
| 885 | -nokay As -nok but allow report from old builds. |

| 930 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| 931 | |
| 932 | A program to help generate bug reports about perl or the modules that |
| 933 | come with it, and mail them. |
| 934 | |
| 935 | If you have found a bug with a non-standard port (one that was not part |
| 936 | of the I<standard distribution>), a binary distribution, or a |
| 937 | non-standard module (such as Tk, CGI, etc), then please see the |
| 938 | documentation that came with that distribution to determine the correct |
| 939 | place to report bugs. |
| 940 | |
| 941 | C<perlbug> is designed to be used interactively. Normally no arguments |
| 942 | will be needed. Simply run it, and follow the prompts. |
| 943 | |
| 944 | If you are unable to run B<perlbug> (most likely because you don't have |
| 945 | a working setup to send mail that perlbug recognizes), you may have to |
| 946 | compose your own report, and email it to B<perlbug@perl.org>. You might |
| 947 | find the B<-d> option useful to get summary information in that case. |
| 948 | |
| 949 | In any case, when reporting a bug, please make sure you have run through |
| 950 | this checklist: |
| 951 | |
| 952 | =over 4 |
| 953 | |
| 954 | =item What version of Perl you are running? |
| 955 | |
| 956 | Type C<perl -v> at the command line to find out. |
| 957 | |
| 958 | =item Are you running the latest released version of perl? |
| 959 | |
| 960 | Look at http://www.perl.com/ to find out. If it is not the latest |
| 961 | released version, get that one and see whether your bug has been |
| 962 | fixed. Note that bug reports about old versions of Perl, especially |
| 963 | those prior to the 5.0 release, are likely to fall upon deaf ears. |
| 964 | You are on your own if you continue to use perl1 .. perl4. |
| 965 | |
| 966 | =item Are you sure what you have is a bug? |
| 967 | |
| 968 | A significant number of the bug reports we get turn out to be documented |
| 969 | features in Perl. Make sure the behavior you are witnessing doesn't fall |
| 970 | under that category, by glancing through the documentation that comes |
| 971 | with Perl (we'll admit this is no mean task, given the sheer volume of |
| 972 | it all, but at least have a look at the sections that I<seem> relevant). |
| 973 | |
| 974 | Be aware of the familiar traps that perl programmers of various hues |
| 975 | fall into. See L<perltrap>. |
| 976 | |
| 977 | Check in L<perldiag> to see what any Perl error message(s) mean. |
| 978 | If message isn't in perldiag, it probably isn't generated by Perl. |
| 979 | Consult your operating system documentation instead. |
| 980 | |
| 981 | If you are on a non-UNIX platform check also L<perlport>, as some |
| 982 | features may be unimplemented or work differently. |
| 983 | |
| 984 | Try to study the problem under the Perl debugger, if necessary. |
| 985 | See L<perldebug>. |
| 986 | |
| 987 | =item Do you have a proper test case? |
| 988 | |
| 989 | The easier it is to reproduce your bug, the more likely it will be |
| 990 | fixed, because if no one can duplicate the problem, no one can fix it. |
| 991 | A good test case has most of these attributes: fewest possible number |
| 992 | of lines; few dependencies on external commands, modules, or |
| 993 | libraries; runs on most platforms unimpeded; and is self-documenting. |
| 994 | |
| 995 | A good test case is almost always a good candidate to be on the perl |
| 996 | test suite. If you have the time, consider making your test case so |
| 997 | that it will readily fit into the standard test suite. |
| 998 | |
| 999 | Remember also to include the B<exact> error messages, if any. |
| 1000 | "Perl complained something" is not an exact error message. |
| 1001 | |
| 1002 | If you get a core dump (or equivalent), you may use a debugger |
| 1003 | (B<dbx>, B<gdb>, etc) to produce a stack trace to include in the bug |
| 1004 | report. NOTE: unless your Perl has been compiled with debug info |
| 1005 | (often B<-g>), the stack trace is likely to be somewhat hard to use |
| 1006 | because it will most probably contain only the function names and not |
| 1007 | their arguments. If possible, recompile your Perl with debug info and |
| 1008 | reproduce the dump and the stack trace. |
| 1009 | |
| 1010 | =item Can you describe the bug in plain English? |
| 1011 | |
| 1012 | The easier it is to understand a reproducible bug, the more likely it |
| 1013 | will be fixed. Anything you can provide by way of insight into the |
| 1014 | problem helps a great deal. In other words, try to analyze the |
| 1015 | problem (to the extent you can) and report your discoveries. |
| 1016 | |
| 1017 | =item Can you fix the bug yourself? |
| 1018 | |
| 1019 | A bug report which I<includes a patch to fix it> will almost |
| 1020 | definitely be fixed. Use the C<diff> program to generate your patches |
| 1021 | (C<diff> is being maintained by the GNU folks as part of the B<diffutils> |
| 1022 | package, so you should be able to get it from any of the GNU software |
| 1023 | repositories). If you do submit a patch, the cool-dude counter at |
| 1024 | perlbug@perl.org will register you as a savior of the world. Your |
| 1025 | patch may be returned with requests for changes, or requests for more |
| 1026 | detailed explanations about your fix. |
| 1027 | |
| 1028 | Here are some clues for creating quality patches: Use the B<-c> or |
| 1029 | B<-u> switches to the diff program (to create a so-called context or |
| 1030 | unified diff). Make sure the patch is not reversed (the first |
| 1031 | argument to diff is typically the original file, the second argument |
| 1032 | your changed file). Make sure you test your patch by applying it with |
| 1033 | the C<patch> program before you send it on its way. Try to follow the |
| 1034 | same style as the code you are trying to patch. Make sure your patch |
| 1035 | really does work (C<make test>, if the thing you're patching supports |
| 1036 | it). |
| 1037 | |
| 1038 | =item Can you use C<perlbug> to submit the report? |
| 1039 | |
| 1040 | B<perlbug> will, amongst other things, ensure your report includes |
| 1041 | crucial information about your version of perl. If C<perlbug> is unable |
| 1042 | to mail your report after you have typed it in, you may have to compose |
| 1043 | the message yourself, add the output produced by C<perlbug -d> and email |
| 1044 | it to B<perlbug@perl.org>. If, for some reason, you cannot run |
| 1045 | C<perlbug> at all on your system, be sure to include the entire output |
| 1046 | produced by running C<perl -V> (note the uppercase V). |
| 1047 | |
| 1048 | Whether you use C<perlbug> or send the email manually, please make |
| 1049 | your Subject line informative. "a bug" not informative. Neither is |
| 1050 | "perl crashes" nor "HELP!!!". These don't help. |
| 1051 | A compact description of what's wrong is fine. |
| 1052 | |
| 1053 | =back |
| 1054 | |
| 1055 | Having done your bit, please be prepared to wait, to be told the bug |
| 1056 | is in your code, or even to get no reply at all. The Perl maintainers |
| 1057 | are busy folks, so if your problem is a small one or if it is difficult |
| 1058 | to understand or already known, they may not respond with a personal reply. |
| 1059 | If it is important to you that your bug be fixed, do monitor the |
| 1060 | C<Changes> file in any development releases since the time you submitted |
| 1061 | the bug, and encourage the maintainers with kind words (but never any |
| 1062 | flames!). Feel free to resend your bug report if the next released |
| 1063 | version of perl comes out and your bug is still present. |

| 1065 | =head1 OPTIONS |
| 1066 | |
| 1067 | =over 8 |
| 1068 | |
| 1069 | =item B<-a> |
| 1070 | |
| 1071 | Address to send the report to. Defaults to B<perlbug@perl.org>. |
| 1072 | |
| 1073 | =item B<-A> |
| 1074 | |
| 1075 | Don't send a bug received acknowledgement to the reply address. |
| 1076 | Generally it is only a sensible to use this option if you are a |
| 1077 | perl maintainer actively watching perl porters for your message to |
| 1078 | arrive. |
| 1079 | |
| 1080 | =item B<-b> |
| 1081 | |
| 1082 | Body of the report. If not included on the command line, or |
| 1083 | in a file with B<-f>, you will get a chance to edit the message. |
| 1084 | |
| 1085 | =item B<-C> |
| 1086 | |
| 1087 | Don't send copy to administrator. |
| 1088 | |
| 1089 | =item B<-c> |
| 1090 | |
| 1091 | Address to send copy of report to. Defaults to the address of the |
| 1092 | local perl administrator (recorded when perl was built). |
| 1093 | |
| 1094 | =item B<-d> |
| 1095 | |
| 1096 | Data mode (the default if you redirect or pipe output). This prints out |
| 1097 | your configuration data, without mailing anything. You can use this |
| 1098 | with B<-v> to get more complete data. |
| 1099 | |
| 1100 | =item B<-e> |
| 1101 | |
| 1102 | Editor to use. |
| 1103 | |
| 1104 | =item B<-f> |
| 1105 | |
| 1106 | File containing the body of the report. Use this to quickly send a |
| 1107 | prepared message. |
| 1108 | |
| 1109 | =item B<-F> |
| 1110 | |
| 1111 | File to output the results to instead of sending as an email. Useful |
| 1112 | particularly when running perlbug on a machine with no direct internet |
| 1113 | connection. |
| 1114 | |
| 1115 | =item B<-h> |
| 1116 | |
| 1117 | Prints a brief summary of the options. |
| 1118 | |
| 1119 | =item B<-ok> |
| 1120 | |
| 1121 | Report successful build on this system to perl porters. Forces B<-S> |
| 1122 | and B<-C>. Forces and supplies values for B<-s> and B<-b>. Only |
| 1123 | prompts for a return address if it cannot guess it (for use with |
| 1124 | B<make>). Honors return address specified with B<-r>. You can use this |
| 1125 | with B<-v> to get more complete data. Only makes a report if this |
| 1126 | system is less than 60 days old. |
| 1127 | |
| 1128 | =item B<-okay> |
| 1129 | |
| 1130 | As B<-ok> except it will report on older systems. |
| 1131 | |
| 1132 | =item B<-nok> |
| 1133 | |
| 1134 | Report unsuccessful build on this system. Forces B<-C>. Forces and |
| 1135 | supplies a value for B<-s>, then requires you to edit the report |
| 1136 | and say what went wrong. Alternatively, a prepared report may be |
| 1137 | supplied using B<-f>. Only prompts for a return address if it |
| 1138 | cannot guess it (for use with B<make>). Honors return address |
| 1139 | specified with B<-r>. You can use this with B<-v> to get more |
| 1140 | complete data. Only makes a report if this system is less than 60 |
| 1141 | days old. |
| 1142 | |
| 1143 | =item B<-nokay> |
| 1144 | |
| 1145 | As B<-nok> except it will report on older systems. |
| 1146 | |
| 1147 | =item B<-r> |
| 1148 | |
| 1149 | Your return address. The program will ask you to confirm its default |
| 1150 | if you don't use this option. |
| 1151 | |
| 1152 | =item B<-S> |
| 1153 | |
| 1154 | Send without asking for confirmation. |
| 1155 | |
| 1156 | =item B<-s> |
| 1157 | |
| 1158 | Subject to include with the message. You will be prompted if you don't |
| 1159 | supply one on the command line. |
| 1160 | |
| 1161 | =item B<-t> |
| 1162 | |
| 1163 | Test mode. The target address defaults to B<perlbug-test@perl.org>. |
| 1164 | |
| 1165 | =item B<-v> |
| 1166 | |
| 1167 | Include verbose configuration data in the report. |
