Hi,
I was hoping to peruse Gnus bugs, and I found myself a little confused
about where to find them. Is the following debbugs package the
canonical bug tracker for the Gnus project?
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=gnus
The reason I'm a little confused is because that debbugs package doesn't
seem to be mentioned the following page:
http://www.gnus.org/resources.html
That page only points to what appears to be a newsgroup:
news://news.gnus.org/gnus.gnus-bug
Since I currently only use Gnus for reading email - not news - I wasn't
sure how to verify how that newsgroup is related to that debbugs
package.
To make matters more confusing, the Gnus manual (in "(gnus) FAQ 8-5")
seems to only mention an email alias for reporting bugs: bugs@gnus.org.
Where does that go? To the debbugs package I linked above, perhaps?

I believe so, yes.

I think gnus.org is out of date -- the debbugs system is the canonical
bug tracker. You can browse it with the debbugs package, in the repos,
which provides a few interactive commands for entering the bug browser.
There's also `gnus-read-ephemeral-bug-group' for one-offs.

Again I think that's out of date. Note that if you run the `gnus-bug'
command, it goes to submit@debbugs.gnu.org (with the "gnus" package
tag).
Hope that helps,
Eric

These days it uses "emacs,gnus", since gnus is now developed in the
same repo as emacs.

That helps a lot! Thank you (and everyone else) for clarifying it.
