Is there a bug reporting mode for reporting XEmacs crashes and package blonk spiels?
I just upgraded to Debian 1.3 GNU/Linux, and there's a 'bug' command now for filing bugs on packages. It works really well! :-) I think that it will really help to even further improve the distribution's quality, since people will be more inclined to file bug reports. (don't remind me to rave-CC about it on <debian-user@lists.debian.org>, I did. ) You can just set VISUAL to 'gnuclient' from ~/.bash_profile, and then in an rxvt, type 'bug packagename', it asks for a subject line, and then up pops an XEmacs frame with a report for you to fill out. Pressing your (server-edit) button {mine's F12} sends it off to the bug tracking system, which autoresponds with your bug number! 503$ bug emacs Please describe your problems using emacs in one line It's not as neato as XEmacs.
