Bug#205600: libc6: glibcbug sends to a black hole (?)



Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-16
Severity: minor


I recently used the glibcbug program.  It sent a mail off, but it seems
to have disappeared into the void.  It does not show up in the
"bug-glibc" archives at http://sources.redhat.com/ml/bug-glibc/ , though
that's not surprising since the mail went to
glibc-bug-reports-stable@gnu.org.  There is a link on
http://sources.redhat.com/glibc/ to the FSF gnats database, but it
doesn't work and didn't when I tried it a few days ago.  I'm inferring
that the address was supposed to go to the FSF gnats, and that since
it's not running, the mail is just sitting somewhere unnoticed.

I assume you have some idea about the best way to report bugs to the
glibc developers, so perhaps you can get glibcbug fixed so it does
something useful.

Thanks,
Andrew
