# distro-tracker

distro-tracker is a set of services tailored to distribution developers,

package maintainers, and anybody who might have to interact with those

people (upstream developers, bug reporters, advanced users, etc). It lets

you follow almost everything related to the life of a package (or of a set

of packages).

## Documentation

The [documentation](https://qa.pages.debian.net/distro-tracker/) always

matches what's in the git repository's master branch.

Otherwise you can generate the documentation yourself by doing `make html`

in the docs subdirectory of the distro-tracker git repository.

## Interacting with the project

### How to contribute

Have a look at the ["Contributing"

section](https://qa.pages.debian.net/distro-tracker/contributing.html) of the

documentation.

### Contact information

You can interact with the developers on the [email protected]

mailing list ([archive](https://lists.debian.org/debian-qa/)) or on

the `#debian-qa` IRC channel on the OFTC network (irc.debian.org server

for example).

The lead developer is Raphaël Hertzog (buxy on IRC).

### Reporting bugs and vulnerabilities

We are using [GitLab's bug

tracker](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/distro-tracker/issues) to manage bug

reports which are related to the source code itself. You should file new bugs

there.

However, we also use the Debian bug tracker with its `tracker.debian.org`

pseudo-package to manage bug reports which are related to the instance which is 

currently running at [https://tracker.debian.org](https://tracker.debian.org). 

You should thus check [its list of open

issues](https://bugs.debian.org/tracker.debian.org) before filing a new

bug to avoid duplicates. You can also have a look at all the [closed bug

reports](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=1;package=tracker.debian.org)

too.

Security issues should be reported to the bug tracker like other bugs.

If you believe that the issue is really sensitive, then you can

mail [Raphaël Hertzog](mailto:[email protected]) privately.
