Report a Forge package bug
-
See the screenshot below for an example:
-
The "category" must be
Octave Forge Package
to be accepted. -
The "summary" must start with
[octave forge] (package_name)
to be accepted. -
Note: Not all packages listed here on Octave Forge are actively maintained anymore.
A good indicator to identify an unmaintained package is the date of its last release. If the release is roughly older than a year, it might take years until your report will be regarded.
If your bug report is ignored for more than two weeks, you can try to contact the maintainer directly. Contact information is given on the individual package pages. If there is still no reply, you can at any time start working on a fork of that package. A broken unmaintained package is of no use.
Please look at the backlog of open Forge package bugs to avoid duplicate reports.
