To make management of bugs against the dpkg suite easier we add as many of the following usertags as apply to the bug. When filing bugs, please do the same to aid triage, by including in the bug report pseudo-header: User: dpkg@packages.debian.org Usertags: Those are the currently used usertags (and the matchings against the old “pseudo-tags”, which were encoded in the bug title): Generic tags ============ usertag pseudo-tag description ------- ---------- ----------- assert [ASSERT] Errors caused by assert(). segfault [SEGFAULT] Errors that cause segmentation faults. conffile [CONFFILE] Issues with configuration file handling. symlink Issues related to symlink handling. depends [DEPENDS] Issues with dependency relationship handling. maint-script Errors related to maintainer scripts. db Issues handling the database. file-metadata File metadata tracking (perm, acl, cap, hash). trivial [TRIVIAL] Bug should be trivial to fix. perf [PERF] Performance problems. new-field Request for new control file fields. new-option Request for new command line option. deb-format Changes to the binary (.deb) format. dsc-format Changes to the source (.dsc) format. arch [ARCH] Updates to ‘cputable’, ‘ostable’ and porting patches. vendor Vendor support and needed modifications. build Project build system issues. i18n [UTF-8] Conversion to the UTF-8 encoding. i18n [INTL] Internationalization problems. l10n [INTL] New or updated translations and bugs affecting translation. Include the language code in the tag, e.g. [INTL:cy_GB]. doc [DOC] Documentation bugs, including --help, program output and manpages.
