If you have problems building the game, or you find bugs in it, the
development team may be reached at
nethack-bugs@nethack.org
If you have problems building the game, or you find bugs in it, we recommend
filing a bug report from our "Contact Us" web page at:
http://www.nethack.org/
When sending correspondence, please observe the following:
o Please be sure to include your machine type, OS, and patchlevel.
o Never send binary files (e.g. save files or bones files) to the
nethack-bugs address. Whichever platform you are using, only a small
minority of the development team has access to it, and you will rapidly
annoy the others. If you have found a bug and think that your save file
would aid in solving the problem, send us a description in words of the
problem, your machine type, your operating system, and the version of
NetHack. Tell us that you have a save file, but do not actually send it.

In the rare case that we think your save file would be helpful, you will
be contacted by a member of the development team with the address of a
specific person to send the save file to.

Patches especially should be directed to this address. If you've changed
something to get NetHack to run on your system, it's likely that others have
done it by making slightly different modifications. By routing your patches
through the development team, we should be able to avoid making everyone else
choose among variant patches claiming to do the same thing, to keep most of
the copies of 3.4 synchronized by means of official patches, and to maintain
the painfully-created file organization. (This process has been working since

there were no archived bug-fixes to give to people who got 2.3 after its initial
release, so the same bugs kept being discovered by new batches of people.)
