See the forms on - the main BTS page at http://bugs.debian.org/ - - There is a mailserver which can send bug reports as plain text on - request. To use it send the word help as the sole contents of an email - to request@bugs.debian.org (the Subject of the message is ignored), or - read the instructions on the World Wide Web or in the file - bug-log-mailserver.txt. - -Accessing archived bug reports - - Each closed bug report is archived 28 days after the last message - relating to it is received and filed. This means that it is no longer - possible to access it or change anything about it using the control - and service bots. However, the reports are still accessible for - viewing. - - You can search the bug report archive using the WWW forms at - http://bugs.debian.org/, simply select the "archived bugs" option. - - Note that it doesn't contain the oldest closed bug reports, only those - after #40000, approximately. - -Accessing the raw bug data - - If you need to get hold of the raw data used by the bug tracking - system, you can mirror it using rsync from bugs-mirror.debian.org. The - relevant modules are bts-spool-db (for the active bug spool), - bts-spool-archive (for bugs that have been closed for a while and thus - archived), and bts-spool-index (for the bug index files). - - At the time of writing, the active spool is about 2.5GB and the - archived spool is about 10GB. If you only need a sample for testing - purposes, please consider downloading only part of the active spool - rather than the whole thing. - - Please do not rely on *.status files in the bug spools, as they are - obsolete, for compatibility purposes only, and will be removed at some - point in the future. Use the *.summary files instead. - _________________________________________________________________ - - Debian BTS administrators <owner@bugs.debian.org> - - Debian bug tracking system - Copyright © 1999 Darren O.
