Before reporting a problem with gnokii make sure that the problem still exists with current version.
When you report a problems please attach the following information:
- phone model
- connection type (Bluetooth/IrDa/cable with its type)
- gnokii version (
gnokii --version) along with source for it: git, tarball, binary package - edit you
gnokiircand enable debugging, e.g.:
[logging] debug = on
and attach gzipped output to the email:
(x)gnokii(d) [parameters] 2>errfile
- if you get a SEGFAULT, a backtrace is needed (refer to segfault).
It would be good if you name the problem in the subject if possible and name if it meets gnokii, xgnokii or gnokiid binaries or gnokii as a whole.
(from Pawel Kot's mailing to gnokii mailing list).
Send resulting report to gnokii-users (at) nongnu.org
If you want to debug yourself, by default the CVS version adds -g to CFLAGS
when generating Makefile.global and the defines needed to print debug
messages when generating include/config.h then in your gnokiirc set debug=on
to see messages about libgnokii or gnokii and xdebug=on to see messages
about xgnokii or smsd.
At configure time you may add --disable-shared to build statically linked
versions that are easier to deal with.
make clean; make and then you can make install or run the programs from their
directory if they are statically linked:
gnokii/gnokii xgnokii/xgnokii smsd/smsd
