4To file a Mesa bug, go to `GitLab on
5freedesktop.org <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues>`__.
6
7Please follow these bug reporting guidelines:
8
9-  Check if a new version of Mesa is available which might have fixed
10   the problem.
11-  Check if your bug is already reported in the database.
12-  Monitor your bug report for requests for additional information, etc.
13-  Attach the output of running glxinfo or wglinfo. This will tell us
14   the Mesa version, which device driver you're using, etc.
15-  If you're reporting a crash, try to use your debugger (gdb) to get a
16   stack trace. Also, recompile Mesa in debug mode to get more detailed
17   information.
18-  Describe in detail how to reproduce the bug, especially with games
19   and applications that the Mesa developers might not be familiar with.
20-  Provide an `apitrace <https://github.com/apitrace/apitrace>`__ or
21   simple GLUT-based test program if possible.
22
23The easier a bug is to reproduce, the sooner it will be fixed. Please do
24everything you can to facilitate quickly fixing bugs. If your bug report
25is vague or your test program doesn't compile easily, the problem may
26not be fixed very quickly.
