Devuan and bug reporting

Hi Folks,

my debugging abilities are very limited but I am, at least, able to move across terminal outputs and logs and catch some bug/warning/issue.

For instance I think I found some issue related with OpenRc and BTRFS in that case where should I report that bug to Devuan or to Debian? How can I understand/know when a bug is specific for Devuan and when it is not?

Thanks,

D.

It's probably best to try to pursue the problem in the forums or on the Devuan mailing lists first so PEBKAC can be eliminated. Then try to reproduce the problem in a Debian system and report a bug to them if it's still there.

The Devuan developers can only really fix their own packages, neither openrc or btrfs-progs fall into that category.
