How to report bugs
==================
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system.
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org, product gtksourceview).
You will need to create an account for yourself.
You can also report bugs using the GNOME program bug-buddy.
In the bug report please include:
* Information about your system. For instance:
- What operating system and version
- What version of X
- What version of the gtk+, glib and gnome libraries
- For Linux, what version of the C library
And anything else you think is relevant.
* How to reproduce the bug.
* If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out when the
crash occurred.
* Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but is not
necessary. If you do send a stack trace, and the error is an X error,
it will be more useful if the stacktrace is produced running the test
program with the --sync command line option.
Please check the bugzilla pages for the list of known bugs.

Patches should also be submitted to bugzilla.gnome.org. If the patch

Patches should be in unified diff form (use the -up options of GNU
diff or svn diff) and should follow the coding style described in the
