NAME

   popbugs - find RC bugs in packages you commonly use

SYNOPSIS

   popbugs [options] [popularity-contest log]

DESCRIPTION

   The  popbugs program fetches the list of release critical bugs from the
   Debian bug tracking system on the internet.  It correlates the bug  log
   with  the  popularity-contest data from your system to obtain a list of
   release critical bugs in packages, which  are  commonly  used  on  your
   system.   Normally this list is displayed in a web browser.  Helping to
   resolve these bugs is a good idea, if you want to  see  your  favourite
   programs in the next stable release of Debian.

OPTIONS

   -h

   --help Show a very short usage message.

   -ooutputfile

   --output=outputfile
          Place  the  output  in  outputfile instead of displaying it in a
          browser.

   -d

   --debug
          Output debugging information.
