    NAME

    send-pr - send problem report (PR) to a central support site
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    send-pr [ site ] [ -f problem-report ] [ -t mail-address ]
    [ -P ] [ -L ] [ -s severity ] [ -V ]
    [ --version ] [ -c address ] [ -a file ]  

    DESCRIPTION

    send-pr is a tool used to submit problem reports (PRs) to a central support site. In most cases the correct site will be the default. This argument indicates the support site which is responsible for the category of problem involved. Some sites may use a local address as a default. site values are defined by using the aliases(5).

    send-pr invokes an editor on a problem report template (after trying to fill in some fields with reasonable default values). When you exit the editor, send-pr sends the completed form to the Problem Report Management System (GNATS) at a central support site. At the support site, the PR is assigned a unique number and is stored in the GNATS database according to its category and submitter-id. GNATS automatically replies with an acknowledgement, citing the category and the PR number.

    To ensure that a PR is handled promptly, it should contain one of the available categories to identify the problem area. (Use `send-pr -L' to see a list of categories.)

    The more precise your problem description and the more complete your information, the faster your support team can solve your problems.

    send-pr depends on a correctly configured mail submission system to work correctly. If, for any reason, sending mail is not working, problem reports can be submitted over the web, through:

    http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html
     

    OPTIONS

    -f problem-report
    specify a file (problem-report) which already contains a complete problem report. send-pr sends the contents of the file without invoking the editor. If the value for problem-report is `-', then send-pr reads from standard input.
    -s severity
    Give the problem report the severity severity.
    -t mail-address
    Change mail address at the support site for problem reports. The default mail-address is the address used for the default site. Use the site argument rather than this option in nearly all cases.
    -c address
    Put address in the Cc: header of the message.
    -a file
    Copy the specified file into the Fix: section. Binary files are uuencoded.
    -P
    print the form specified by the environment variable PR_FORM on standard output. If PR_FORM is not set, print the standard blank PR template. No mail is sent.
    -L
    print the list of available categories. No mail is sent.
    -V
    Display the send-pr version number. This may also be specified as --version.

    Note: use send-pr to submit problem reports rather than mailing them directly. Using both the template and send-pr itself will help ensure all necessary information will reach the support site.

    ENVIRONMENT

    The environment variable EDITOR specifies the editor to invoke on the template.
    default: vi

    If the environment variable MAIL_AGENT is set, its value is used as the path + command line arguments of the executable to be invoked for sending the problem report (which will be provided via standard input).
    This can be useful if you either use a MTA other than sendmail or need to provide additional parameters, such as the envelope sender on machines without a valid FQDN.
    Default value: /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t

    If the environment variable PR_FORM is set, then its value is used as the file name of the template for your problem-report editing session. You can use this to start with a partially completed form (for example, a form with the identification fields already completed).  

    HOW TO FILL OUT A PROBLEM REPORT

    Problem reports have to be in a particular form so that a program can easily manage them. Please remember the following guidelines:
    *
    describe only one problem with each problem report.
    *
    For follow-up mail, use the same subject line as the one in the automatic acknowledgement. It consists of category, PR number and the original synopsis line. This allows the support site to relate several mail messages to a particular PR and to record them automatically.
    *
    Please try to be as accurate as possible in the subject and/or synopsis line.
    *
    The subject and the synopsis line are not confidential. This is because open-bugs lists are compiled from them. Avoid confidential information there.

    See the GNU Info file send-pr.info or the document Reporting Problems With send-pr for detailed information on reporting problems  

    HOW TO SUBMIT TEST CASES, CODE, ETC.

    Submit small code samples with the PR. Contact the support site for instructions on submitting larger test cases and problematic source code.  

    FILES

    /tmp/pf.XXXXXXXX    copy of PR used in editing session

    /tmp/pf.XXXXXXXX   copy of empty PR form, for testing purposes

    /tmp/pr.XXXXXXXX   copy of filled PR form, created on interrupt

    /tmp/pbad.XXXXXXXX file for rejected PRs
     

    EMACS USER INTERFACE

    An Emacs user interface for send-pr with completion of field values is part of the send-pr distribution (invoked with M-x send-pr). See the file send-pr.info or the ASCII file INSTALL in the top level directory of the distribution for configuration and installation information. The Emacs LISP template file is send-pr-el.in and is installed as send-pr.el.  

    INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION

    See send-pr.info or INSTALL for installation instructions.
