Current FreeBSD problem reports

The following is a listing of current problems submitted by FreeBSD users. These represent problem reports covering all versions including experimental development code and obsolete releases.

Bugs can be in one of several states:

o - open

A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed.

a - analyzed

The problem is understood and a solution is being sought.

f - feedback

Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution.

p - patched

A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open.

r - repocopy

The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion.

s - suspended

The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended.

c - closed

A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

You may view summaries by Severity, State, Category, or Responsible Party.You may also sort by Last-Modified, Category, or Responsible Party. Or formulate a specific query. Do not show closed reports.
