GNOME Control Center
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
About -
|
|
|
|
The control center is GNOME's main interface for configuration of various
|
|
aspects of your desktop.
|
|
|
|
Installation -
|
|
|
|
See the file 'INSTALL'
|
|
|
|
How to report bugs -
|
|
|
|
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system under the product
|
|
control-center. It is available at http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
|
|
|
|
In the report please include the following information -
|
|
|
|
Operating system and version
|
|
For Linux, version of the C library
|
|
How to reproduce the bug if possible
|
|
If the bug was a crash, include the exact text that was printed out
|
|
A stacktrace where possible [see below]
|
|
|
|
How to get a stack trace -
|
|
|
|
If the crash is reproducible, it is possible to get a stack trace and
|
|
attach it to the bug report. The following steps are used to obtain a
|
|
stack trace -
|
|
|
|
Run the program in gdb [the GNU debugger] or any other debugger
|
|
ie. gdb gnome-keyboard-properties
|
|
Start the program
|
|
ie. (gdb) run
|
|
Reproduce the crash and the program will exit to the gdb prompt
|
|
Get the back trace
|
|
ie. (gdb) bt full
|
|
|
|
Once you have the backtrace, copy and paste this either into the
|
|
'Comments' field or attach a file with it included.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Patches -
|
|
|
|
Patches should be submitted to bugzilla.gnome.org or emailed to the
|
|
gnomecc-list@gnome.org list. If using bugzilla, attach
|
|
the patch to a new bug report [or preferably, check to see if there is
|
|
already a bug report that corresponds to your patch]. Bug reports
|
|
containing patches should include the 'PATCH' keyword.
|
|
|
|
Patches should be created using the unified diff form.
|
|
ie. svn diff file-to-be-patched.c > patch.diff
|
