Hi
Not sure whether that was asked before. Gnus is now part of GNU emacs,
should I still use
1. gnus-bug
2. Or report-emacs-bug?
BTW, if gnus-bug should not be used, I suggest to remove it.
In case I can use it I think the naming should be unified. So
report-gnus-bug instead of gnus-bug.

The end result is always the same, a report in debbugs. What's a bit
different is the default text inserted into the message.

I guess the name is that way because it's the original name, and because
usually all functions of a package start with the package name.
Bye,

Specifically, gnus-bug assigns the bug to both packages gnus and emacs,
whereas report-emacs-bug assigns it only to the emacs package.
The former is more useful for bug search and triage purposes, but the
latter includes more information about Emacs' state, so I think TRT
would be to make gnus-bug exactly like report-emacs-bug, except that it
also assigns the bug to the gnus package.
Now that Gnus is distributed with Emacs, I also think the
X-Debbugs-Version should be set to the version of Emacs, not Gnus.
While we're on the topic, can someone please have a look at bug#35239?
I think it's a pretty straightforward change and would like to push it
soon.

Thanks,

I agree.

There was some talk a while ago about having `report-emacs-bug' prompt
for an optional sub-package (Gnus, Tramp, ERC, etc), and "do something
extra": add a tag, cc a maintainer, something like that. I still think
that's a good idea.

Can't resist pointing out that Gnus has been distributed with Emacs
since about forever. The part that's changed recentishly (AFAIK) is
that Gnus development now takes place in emacs.git rather than in
another repository and that there is no attempt to distribute Gnus
separately from Emacs any more.

Right, thanks for clarifying that (I'm not familiar with the history of
Gnus, but the single development repo is what I was thinking of).

Lars did this recently[1], thanks Lars!
