How to submit a good bug report?
|
|
|
|
Bugs are tracked via the GitHub issue tracker. Open an issue at:
|
|
https://github.com/irssi/irssi/issues
|
|
|
|
First you should give the following information:
|
|
- irssi version, if git (or devel. tarball) then which commit hash (or date
|
|
from /version)?
|
|
- operating system / distribution and it's version
|
|
- when did it crash? did you do something? can you reproduce the crash?
|
|
|
|
Getting backtrace of the crash also helps a lot, especially if irssi crashes
|
|
randomly. If after crash you see text:
|
|
|
|
"segmentation fault (core dumped)"
|
|
|
|
It writes a file named "core" or "irssi.core" depending on your OS to
|
|
directory where you started irssi. If it doesn't print the "(core dumped)"
|
|
or you can't find the core file, you'll have to raise the limit for max.
|
|
core file size before running irssi. To do this, say:
|
|
|
|
ulimit -c unlimited
|
|
|
|
So, if you have the core file and GNU debugger (gdb), you can get the
|
|
backtrace with:
|
|
|
|
gdb irssi core
|
|
set logging file bt.log
|
|
set logging on
|
|
bt
|
|
set logging off
|
|
quit
|
|
|
|
Provide the bt.log file.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example session:
|
|
|
|
[cras@hurina] ~/cvs/m/irssi/src/fe-text$ gdb ./irssi core
