A problem report, or PR, can be about any component of FreeBSD, including problems with the operating system programs, a mistake in the documentation, or a new feature that the submitter wishes to see incorporated.
Problem reports begin in the open state, and are closed when the issue is resolved. A numeric ID is assigned to each PR for tracking. Many FreeBSD changes refer to the PR number that prompted the change.
Problem reports are submitted to the development team with the web form. An account will need to be created before a bug can be submitted. Please note that messages sent to a mailing list are not tracked as official problem reports, and may get lost in the noise!
Before submitting a problem report, please read the Writing FreeBSD Problem Reports article. This article describes when to submit a problem report and what to include. Some useful background information is also contained in the Problem Report Handling Guidelines article.
FreeBSD problem reports are tracked using Bugzilla.
