Stay informed about dar/libdar events You can subscribe to the dar-news mailing-list,
which is a read-only mailing-list that has a very low email volume (in
average, less than one a month), to be informed about major events
like new releases or security issues.
Asking for support If FAQ, tutorial, mini-howto, usage notes, or man page do not answer your question, you can read the dar-support mailing-list archive at gmane,
and use the search engine (the green text box at the bottom of the
page) to look for keywords that match your problem. If that still does
not solve your problem, you can subscribe to dar-support mailing-list and send an email to the mailing-list describing your issue.
Reporting a Bug First, check that the problem has not already been seen and addressed in dar-support mailing-list. Then, check the Bug
Tracker
to see whether the bug has not already been reported (thanks to avoid duplicated). If found, you can monitor
the corresponding item to be informed of any update concerning this
bug. If the item is fixed you can grab the source code with the fix
from GIT. But if the bug you met is not yet reported feel free to
create a new report providing as much information and details as you can
to ease reproducing and fixing the bug.
Note that you need to register at Sourceforge to be able to open a bug (subscription to Sourceforge is free, and won't spam your email: I use it since 2002 and never got spam on the email I gave and which is only known by sourceforge). Giving a real email address is beneficial, because you'll get a notification when the status of the bug changes (like when it has been resolved) it also avoids me wasting time trying to reproduce a bug reported anonymously and impossible to reproduce (real bug with very little information, user mistake, ...). Asking for a new feature Use the New
Feature tracker,
first checking that no one has already thought about the request you
are about to ask (thanks to avoid duplications). Note that the ability to ask a feature does not mean
an obligation for me to implement it, in particular if the feature is not
compatible with an already existing feature.
Submitting a patch Feel free to use the Patch
Tracker
at Sourceforge.
