If you find a bug in QGIS, first check if it has already been reported:

Some hints about when you should file a bug:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- Just because a bug is filed doesn't always mean we can or will fix it.
|

|
|
|
Sometimes people ask for things that will require many man hours to do and
|
|
|
|
offer little reward to work ratio benefit when compared to the other issues
|
2008-11-15 06:10:32 +00:00
|
|
|
in the queue. Also some things are simply not fixable due to whatever
|
|
|
|
technical reason.
|
2013-09-10 16:08:33 +02:00
|
|
|
- Sometimes we don't fix a bug because the user's vision of how QGIS should
|
2008-11-15 06:10:32 +00:00
|
|
|
behave doesn't match ours. Hey we are all humans it can happen...
|
2013-09-10 16:08:33 +02:00
|
|
|
- Always check that your bug has not already been filed by someone else since
|
2008-11-15 06:10:32 +00:00
|
|
|
dealing with duplicate tickets causes a lot of time wasting.
|

|
|
|
- Be prepared to provided further feedback after the initial triage.
|
2013-09-10 16:08:33 +02:00
|
|
|
- Don't be offended if we don't see tickets as having the same priority as you
|
2008-11-15 06:10:32 +00:00
|
|
|
do. While we appreciate it's inconvenient if some issue prevents you doing
|
|
|
|
your work, we need to take the big picture view of things and focus on
|
|
|
|
things that affect the largest proportion of our user base.
