849A program to help generate bug reports about perl5, and mail them.
850It is designed to be used interactively. Normally no arguments will

852
853Usage:
854$0 [-v] [-a address] [-s subject] [-b body | -f inpufile ] [ -F outputfile ]
855 [-r returnaddress] [-e editor] [-c adminaddress | -C] [-S] [-t] [-h]
856$0 [-v] [-r returnaddress] [-ok | -okay | -nok | -nokay]
857
858Simplest usage: run "$0", and follow the prompts.
859
860Options:
861
862 -v Include Verbose configuration data in the report
863 -f File containing the body of the report. Use this to
864 quickly send a prepared message.
865 -F File to output the resulting mail message to, instead of mailing.
866 -S Send without asking for confirmation.
867 -a Address to send the report to. Defaults to `$address'.
868 -c Address to send copy of report to. Defaults to `$cc'.
869 -C Don't send copy to administrator.
870 -s Subject to include with the message. You will be prompted
871 if you don't supply one on the command line.
872 -b Body of the report. If not included on the command line, or
873 in a file with -f, you will get a chance to edit the message.
874 -r Your return address. The program will ask you to confirm
875 this if you don't give it here.
876 -e Editor to use.
877 -t Test mode. The target address defaults to `$testaddress'.
878 -d Data mode (the default if you redirect or pipe output.)
879 This prints out your configuration data, without mailing
880 anything. You can use this with -v to get more complete data.
881 -ok Report successful build on this system to perl porters
882 (use alone or with -v). Only use -ok if *everything* was ok:
883 if there were *any* problems at all, use -nok.
884 -okay As -ok but allow report from old builds.
885 -nok Report unsuccessful build on this system to perl porters
886 (use alone or with -v). You must describe what went wrong
887 in the body of the report which you will be asked to edit.
888 -nokay As -nok but allow report from old builds.
889 -h Print this help message.

936
937=head1 DESCRIPTION
938
939A program to help generate bug reports about perl or the modules that
940come with it, and mail them.
941
942If you have found a bug with a non-standard port (one that was not part
943of the I<standard distribution>), a binary distribution, or a
944non-standard module (such as Tk, CGI, etc), then please see the
945documentation that came with that distribution to determine the correct
946place to report bugs.
947
948C<perlbug> is designed to be used interactively. Normally no arguments
949will be needed. Simply run it, and follow the prompts.
950
951If you are unable to run B<perlbug> (most likely because you don't have
952a working setup to send mail that perlbug recognizes), you may have to
953compose your own report, and email it to B<perlbug@perl.com>. You might
954find the B<-d> option useful to get summary information in that case.
955
956In any case, when reporting a bug, please make sure you have run through
957this checklist:
958
959=over 4
960
961=item What version of Perl you are running?
962
963Type C<perl -v> at the command line to find out.
964
965=item Are you running the latest released version of perl?
966
967Look at http://www.perl.com/ to find out. If it is not the latest
968released version, get that one and see whether your bug has been
969fixed. Note that bug reports about old versions of Perl, especially
970those prior to the 5.0 release, are likely to fall upon deaf ears.
971You are on your own if you continue to use perl1 .. perl4.
972
973=item Are you sure what you have is a bug?
974
975A significant number of the bug reports we get turn out to be documented
976features in Perl. Make sure the behavior you are witnessing doesn't fall
977under that category, by glancing through the documentation that comes
978with Perl (we'll admit this is no mean task, given the sheer volume of
979it all, but at least have a look at the sections that I<seem> relevant).
980
981Be aware of the familiar traps that perl programmers of various hues
982fall into. See L<perltrap>.
983
984Check in L<perldiag> to see what any Perl error message(s) mean.
985If message isn't in perldiag, it probably isn't generated by Perl.
986Consult your operating system documentation instead.
987
988If you are on a non-UNIX platform check also L<perlport>, as some
989features may be unimplemented or work differently.
990
991Try to study the problem under the Perl debugger, if necessary.
992See L<perldebug>.
993
994=item Do you have a proper test case?
995
996The easier it is to reproduce your bug, the more likely it will be
997fixed, because if no one can duplicate the problem, no one can fix it.
998A good test case has most of these attributes: fewest possible number
999of lines; few dependencies on external commands, modules, or
1000libraries; runs on most platforms unimpeded; and is self-documenting.
1001
1002A good test case is almost always a good candidate to be on the perl
1003test suite. If you have the time, consider making your test case so
1004that it will readily fit into the standard test suite.
1005
1006Remember also to include the B<exact> error messages, if any.
1007"Perl complained something" is not an exact error message.
1008
1009If you get a core dump (or equivalent), you may use a debugger
1010(B<dbx>, B<gdb>, etc) to produce a stack trace to include in the bug
1011report. NOTE: unless your Perl has been compiled with debug info
1012(often B<-g>), the stack trace is likely to be somewhat hard to use
1013because it will most probably contain only the function names and not
1014their arguments. If possible, recompile your Perl with debug info and
1015reproduce the dump and the stack trace.
1016
1017=item Can you describe the bug in plain English?
1018
1019The easier it is to understand a reproducible bug, the more likely it
1020will be fixed. Anything you can provide by way of insight into the
1021problem helps a great deal. In other words, try to analyze the
1022problem (to the extent you can) and report your discoveries.
1023
1024=item Can you fix the bug yourself?
1025
1026A bug report which I<includes a patch to fix it> will almost
1027definitely be fixed. Use the C<diff> program to generate your patches
1028(C<diff> is being maintained by the GNU folks as part of the B<diffutils>
1029package, so you should be able to get it from any of the GNU software
1030repositories). If you do submit a patch, the cool-dude counter at
1031perlbug@perl.com will register you as a savior of the world. Your
1032patch may be returned with requests for changes, or requests for more
1033detailed explanations about your fix.
1034
1035Here are some clues for creating quality patches: Use the B<-c> or
1036B<-u> switches to the diff program (to create a so-called context or
1037unified diff). Make sure the patch is not reversed (the first
1038argument to diff is typically the original file, the second argument
1039your changed file). Make sure you test your patch by applying it with
1040the C<patch> program before you send it on its way. Try to follow the
1041same style as the code you are trying to patch. Make sure your patch
1042really does work (C<make test>, if the thing you're patching supports
1043it).
1044
1045=item Can you use C<perlbug> to submit the report?
1046
1047B<perlbug> will, amongst other things, ensure your report includes
1048crucial information about your version of perl. If C<perlbug> is unable
1049to mail your report after you have typed it in, you may have to compose
1050the message yourself, add the output produced by C<perlbug -d> and email
1051it to B<perlbug@perl.com>. If, for some reason, you cannot run
1052C<perlbug> at all on your system, be sure to include the entire output
1053produced by running C<perl -V> (note the uppercase V).
1054
1055Whether you use C<perlbug> or send the email manually, please make
1056your Subject line informative. "a bug" not informative. Neither is
1057"perl crashes" nor "HELP!!!". These don't help.
1058A compact description of what's wrong is fine.
1059
1060=back
1061
1062Having done your bit, please be prepared to wait, to be told the bug
1063is in your code, or even to get no reply at all. The Perl maintainers
1064are busy folks, so if your problem is a small one or if it is difficult
1065to understand or already known, they may not respond with a personal reply.
1066If it is important to you that your bug be fixed, do monitor the
1067C<Changes> file in any development releases since the time you submitted
1068the bug, and encourage the maintainers with kind words (but never any
1069flames!). Feel free to resend your bug report if the next released
1070version of perl comes out and your bug is still present.
1071
1072=head1 OPTIONS
1073

1092local perl administrator (recorded when perl was built).
1093
1094=item B<-d>
1095
1096Data mode (the default if you redirect or pipe output). This prints out

1101
1102Editor to use.
1103
1104=item B<-f>
1105
1106File containing the body of the report. Use this to quickly send a
1107prepared message.
1108
1109=item B<-F>
1110
1111File to output the results to instead of sending as an email. Useful
1112particularly when running perlbug on a machine with no direct internet
1113connection.

1116
1117Prints a brief summary of the options.
1118
1119=item B<-ok>
1120
1121Report successful build on this system to perl porters. Forces B<-S>
1122and B<-C>. Forces and supplies values for B<-s> and B<-b>. Only
1123prompts for a return address if it cannot guess it (for use with
1124B<make>). Honors return address specified with B<-r>. You can use this
1125with B<-v> to get more complete data. Only makes a report if this
1126system is less than 60 days old.
1127
1128=item B<-okay>
1129
1130As B<-ok> except it will report on older systems.
1131
1132=item B<-nok>
1133
1134Report unsuccessful build on this system. Forces B<-C>. Forces and
1135supplies a value for B<-s>, then requires you to edit the report
1136and say what went wrong. Alternatively, a prepared report may be
1137supplied using B<-f>. Only prompts for a return address if it
1138cannot guess it (for use with B<make>). Honors return address
1139specified with B<-r>. You can use this with B<-v> to get more
1140complete data. Only makes a report if this system is less than 60
