Python is a mature programming language which has established a reputation for
|
|
stability. In order to maintain this reputation, the developers would like to
|
|
know of any deficiencies you find in Python.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Documentation bugs
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
If you find a bug in this documentation or would like to propose an improvement,
|
|
please send an e-mail to docs@python.org describing the bug and where you found
|
|
it. If you have a suggestion how to fix it, include that as well.
|
|
|
|
docs@python.org is a mailing list run by volunteers; your request will be
|
|
noticed, even if it takes a while to be processed.
|
|
|
|
Of course, if you want a more persistent record of your issue, you can use the
|
|
issue tracker for documentation bugs as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using the Python issue tracker
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
Bug reports for Python itself should be submitted via the Python Bug Tracker
|
|
(http://bugs.python.org/). The bug tracker offers a Web form which allows
|
|
pertinent information to be entered and submitted to the developers.
|
|
|
|
The first step in filing a report is to determine whether the problem has
|
|
already been reported. The advantage in doing so, aside from saving the
|
|
developers time, is that you learn what has been done to fix it; it may be that
|
|
the problem has already been fixed for the next release, or additional
|
|
information is needed (in which case you are welcome to provide it if you can!).
|
|
To do this, search the bug database using the search box on the top of the page.
|
|
|
|
If the problem you're reporting is not already in the bug tracker, go back to
|
|
the Python Bug Tracker and log in. If you don't already have a tracker account,
|
|
select the "Register" link or, if you use OpenID, one of the OpenID provider
|
|
logos in the sidebar. It is not possible to submit a bug report anonymously.
|
|
|
|
Being now logged in, you can submit a bug. Select the "Create New" link in the
|
|
sidebar to open the bug reporting form.
|
|
|
|
The submission form has a number of fields. For the "Title" field, enter a
|
|
*very* short description of the problem; less than ten words is good. In the
|
|
"Type" field, select the type of your problem; also select the "Component" and
|
|
"Versions" to which the bug relates.
|
|
|
|
In the "Comment" field, describe the problem in detail, including what you
|
|
expected to happen and what did happen. Be sure to include whether any
|
|
extension modules were involved, and what hardware and software platform you
|
|
were using (including version information as appropriate).
|
|
|
|
Each bug report will be assigned to a developer who will determine what needs to
|
|
be done to correct the problem. You will receive an update each time action is
|
|
taken on the bug. See http://www.python.org/dev/workflow/ for a detailed
|
|
description of the issue workflow.

`How to Report Bugs Effectively <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html>`_
|
|
Article which goes into some detail about how to create a useful bug report.
|
|
This describes what kind of information is useful and why it is useful.

Mozilla project, but describes general good practices.
