# debgtd(1)

a tool to help organise and prioritise your Debian bugs

## NAME

debgtd - a tool to help organise and prioritise your Debian bugs

## SYNOPSIS

**debgtd**

## DESCRIPTION

**debgtd** ("getting things done") is a GUI tool which allows you to visualise, sort and filter a list of bugs from the Debian Bug Tracker (BTS).

debgtd is intended to help users contribute to Debian by keeping track of which bugs they have submitted and determine which need more the user's attention (such as requiring more information, etc.)

Place the e-mail address that you use to report bugs into the  text field at the top of the **debgtd** window and click the adjacent button to populate the list.

If you define the **DEBEMAIL** environment variable prior to invoking debgtd, it will auto-populate the text field.

## FILES

**debgtd** honours the XDG desktop specification. By default, data files are kept at **~/.local/share/debgtd** , but you can override this location by defining the **XDG\_DATA\_HOME** environment variable.

## BUGS

debgtd is in an early stage of development.  If you find a bug, please check to see if it has been reported at  the Debian Bug Tracking System ⟨URL: http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ ⟩

## GET INVOLVED

debgtd is written to be a useful tool for workflow. Comments and suggestions and patches to the author are very welcome.
