bashbug - report a bug in bash
SYNOPSIS
bashbug [--help] [--version] [bug-report-email-addresses]
DESCRIPTION
bashbug is a utility for reporting bugs in Bash to the maintainers.
bashbug will start up your preferred editor with a preformatted bug report template for you to fill in. Save the file and quit the editor
once you have completed the missing fields. bashbug will notify you of any problems with the report and ask for confirmation before
sending it. By default the bug report is mailed to both the GNU developers and the Debian Bash maintainers. The recipients can be changed
by giving a comma separated list of bug-report-email-addresses.
If you invoke bashbug by accident, just quit your editor. You will always be asked for confirmation before a bug report is sent.
OPTIONS --help
Show a brief usage message and exit.
--version
Show the version of bashbug and exit.
bug-report-email-addresses
Comma separated list of recipients' email addresses. By default the report is mailed to both the GNU developers and the Debian Bash
maintainers.
ENVIRONMENT
DEFEDITOR
Editor to use for editing the bug report.
EDITOR
Editor to use for editing the bug report (overridden by DEFEDITOR).
SEE ALSO bash(1), reportbug(1), update-alternatives(8) for preferred editor.

bashbug - report a bug in bash
SYNOPSIS
bashbug [--version] [--help] [email-address]
DESCRIPTION
bashbug is a shell script to help the user compose and mail bug reports concerning bash in a standard format. bashbug invokes the editor
specified by the environment variable EDITOR on a temporary copy of the bug report format outline. The user must fill in the appropriate
fields and exit the editor. bashbug then mails the completed report to bug-bash@gnu.org, or email-address. If the report cannot be
mailed, it is saved in the file dead.bashbug in the invoking user's home directory.
The bug report format outline consists of several sections. The first section provides information about the machine, operating system,
the bash version, and the compilation environment. The second section should be filled in with a description of the bug. The third sec-
tion should be a description of how to reproduce the bug. The optional fourth section is for a proposed fix. Fixes are encouraged.
ENVIRONMENT
bashbug will utilize the following environment variables if they exist:
EDITOR Specifies the preferred editor. If EDITOR is not set, bashbug defaults to emacs.
HOME Directory in which the failed bug report is saved if the mail fails.
TMPDIR Directory in which to create temporary files and directories.
