- GNATS - GNU Problem Report Management System
+GNATS is the GNU Problem Report Management System.
-This directory contains GNATS, a problem tracking system written to
-help report on, and track, problem reports or bugs. GNATS is currently
-in use at Cygnus to help track all incoming bug reports. There are
-many concepts or approaches to GNATS which are only useful to
-organizations which track bugs related by customers as well as by bug
-type.
-
-You will want to add a user entry to your /etc/passwd file for the user-id
-that owns gnats-related databases on your server. Something of the form:
-
- gnats:*:61:61:GNATS database owner:/usr/pkg/share/gnats/gnats-db:/bin/sh
-
-should do just fine (put it in your ftpusers file!). Then add the following
-line to /etc/inetd.conf and restart inetd:
-
- support stream tcp nowait gnats /usr/pkg/libexec/gnats/gnatsd gnatsd
-
-Add something like this into the a crontab for 'gnats' to process
-incoming bug reports:
-
- */5 * * * * /usr/pkg/libexec/gnats/queue-pr -r
-
-or in /etc/crontab as:
-
- */5 * * * * gnats /usr/pkg/libexec/gnats/queue-pr -r
-
-To accept PRs by mail you'll want some new aliases too:
-
- gnats-admin: postmaster
- bugs: "| /usr/pkg/libexec/gnats/queue-pr -q"
- query-pr: "| /usr/pkg/libexec/gnats/mail-query"
-
-Don't forget to run /usr/pkg/libexec/gnats/mkcat as gnats.
