Bugzilla is a repository of bugs and enhancement requests maintained by the Gnome Project and used by the GnuCash project.
Other Resources
- Also, uservoice.com is an interesting forum for discussion of new feature requests (but not bug reports).
Using Bugzilla
There is a specific GnuCash "product" subsection which allows you to specifically search for GnuCash bugs. You can use the following quick links to perform actions on the GnuCash Bugs Database:
Strongly recommended:
Other links into bugzilla:
- Search the entire GNOME bug database
- Search for open GnuCash bugs and enhancements
- Search for open GnuCash bugs and enhancements, restricted to post-1.8 or unspecified versions
- You might probably read the FAQ section about bug reporting before you continue ...
- Also bugzillas help has useful parts.
- Open a new GnuCash bug or enhancement Request; when reporting a crash, see Stack Trace and Tracefile for information on how to produce a stack trace for your bug report.
If a program crash or freeze only happens on a specific file like
- data file
- import file
- (modified) report
it can be useful to attach a copy of that file to your bug report.
- If the file contains confidential data do not forget to anonymize you data.
- If the file is really big, try to create a minimal example.
When uploading adjust the mime type of your file:
- Uncompressed gnucash data files are of type text/xml,
- most import files are of type text/plain.
If a developer asked you for some information or one of the files above and you attached them, do not forget, to reset the bug status from needinfo to unconfirmed again.
Bug Triage
For people, which like to help us e.g. on bug triage, are some additional informations in QA/BugzillaAdministration.
