1.2 Reporting Bugs
==================

We try hard to make a2ps portable on any Unix platform, and bug free.
But sometimes there can still be bad surprises, even after having
compiled and checked a2ps on several very different platforms.

   You may encounter some of these problems yourself.  In any case,
please never abandon without giving us a chance.  We need information
from everybody so that mistakes get fixed as fast as possible.

   So, if you have a problem (configuration error, compilation error,
runtime error, documentation error or unclear), first check in the FAQ
(Note: FAQ), then on the page Known a2ps Bugs
(http://www.gnu.org/software/a2ps//bugs.html) if the issue has not been
addressed yet.  If it is not the case, but it appears that the version
of a2ps you have is old, consider upgrading.

   If the problem persists, send us a mail (<bug-a2ps@gnu.org>) which
subject is 'a2ps VERSION: SHORT-DESCRIPTION' and which content mentions
the name of your machine and OS, the version of a2ps, every detail you
have on your compiler, and as much traces as possible (the error
messages you get on the screen, or the output of 'make' when it fails
etc.).

   Be sure to get a quick answer.
