It is important to try to make sure that the report isn't extraneous. The easiest way to do this is to first look at the [upcoming changes in R](https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/doc/NEWS.Rd), to see if the bug has already been patched (just not released yet), | ||
and to [browse the latest bug reports](https://bugs.r-project.org/buglist.cgi?bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bugidtype=include&chfieldto=Now&cmdtype=doit&emailassigned_to1=1&emailassigned_to2=1&emailcc2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailtype1=substring&emailtype2=substring&field0-0-0=noop&long_desc_type=substring&order=bugs.delta_ts%20desc&query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&type0-0-0=noop) | ||
or [search for the bug](https://bugs.r-project.org/query.cgi) in Bugzilla to see if (even if it hasn't been patched yet) it has been reported. If your bug has not yet been reported or fixed, you can report the bug following the guidelines in the section [Writing a good bug report](#writing-a-good-bug-report). If you have a patch accompanying your bug, see the section [How to submit patches](#how-to-submit-patches). | ||
