* Fedora OS: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/
When you file a bug on any component which affects Dextrose, please bring it to our
attention by marking it with the "dextrose" keyword and by Cc'ing the [[Dextrose/Contacts|Dextrose Release Manager]].
=== Reporting bugs specific to Dextrose ===
You can file bugs specific to Dextrose in the [http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ Sugar Labs bug tracker] and
assign them to component "Dextrose". You can use this component when you're in doubt, the maintainers
will reassign it to the correct component.
Before you file a new bug, please check the [http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/wiki/Dextrose Summary of all bugs affecting Dextrose]
