Re: Patch to /etc/profile to deal with $HOME with a space

4. This problem could be reported to Bugzilla, with
  a patch file attachment.  Please see

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=cygwin

and select 'Cygwin Applications' as the Component.

  After you have entered the Summary and Description, revisit
  the Bugzilla report, and click on the 'Create new attachment'
  link.  It will allow you to attach a patch file, and select
  that type of file.

Didn't we say that before? Please don't file arbitrary patches to bugzilla by yourself! Let the developers do that, based on the discussion here. -- Reini Urban

OK. Should this be added to http://cygwin.com/problems.html?

Better don't mention that.


Or, should subscribers to this list not be referred to Bugzilla?

If it stays read-only. But so far it's a developers-internal tool.


Otherwise it will lead to ineffective and cluttered bug reports.
It is much easier to understand the problem if analyzed here and then maybe posted by the developer, who understands the real problem and might want to use bugzilla. If at all.
