Problem Report Database

-

Current FreeBSD problem reports are tracked using Bugzilla.

- -

A FreeBSD problem report (PR) is not necessarily a bug with FreeBSD - itself. In some cases it may be reporting a mistake in the - documentation (which could be a simple typo). In other cases it may - be a 'wishlist' item that the submitter would like to see incorporated - in to FreeBSD. In many cases a PR contains a port which has been - prepared for inclusion in the FreeBSD - Ports and Packages collection.

- -

Problem reports start 'open', and are closed as the issue they report - is resolved. In addition, each PR is assigned a unique tracking ID - to ensure that it is not lost. Many FreeBSD changes include the - tracking ID of the PR that prompted the change.
