Reporting New Bugs
User reports of bugs and requests for enhancements are extremely important parts of FOP development, and we appreciate the time you take to help us track these issues down. To help us ensure that the bug database is as useful as it should be, please use the following checklist if you are considering reporting a new bug:
- Is your issue really a request to comply with some aspect of the XSL-FO standard? If so, please do not enter a bug report. The developers already carefully track which standard requirements have been implemented. Other enhancement requests are welcome (although they are not technically "bugs", they are entered and tracked in the same system -- just be sure to mark the issue as an enhancement).
- Is your issue addressed by an FAQ? If so, please do not enter a bug report unless the FAQ did not adequately address your issue.
- Has this bug already been reported? See section above for a list of bugs that have already been reported. If the bug has already been reported, please do not open a new bug report. Reporting the same bug twice will only slow the development team down. However, if you have insight that may help developers track an existing problem, please add comments and/or file attachments to the existing bug.
- Do you know how to write a good bug report? Please review the Apache Bug Writing Guidelines before submitting your report.
- If, and only if, you have passed all of the above steps, please enter a new bug report at The FOP bug database (Bugzilla). You will be asked to login to an existing Bugzilla account or to create a new one. When entering the bug report, please make your description complete and concise. If appropriate, attach a minimal fo file to your report which demonstrates the problem.
- After submission, a copy of your bug report will be automatically sent to the FOP developer discussion list.
