Bugs are problems that occur in software. If you come across a bug, you can help to fix it by reporting it to the people that produce the software.

You can use Launchpad to report a bug if:

 * you found it whilst using a Linux distribution that manages bugs in Launchpad, such as one of the Ubuntu family
 * or if you found it in software, such as Jokosher, that uses Launchpad as its main bug tracker.

== Confirming the bug exists ==

Before you report a bug, it's important to confirm that it wasn't a one-off.

Think about what you were doing before the bug happened, then repeat the same steps. If the problem happens again, you should report the bug.

== Reporting the bug to the right people ==

How you use Launchpad to report a bug varies slightly, depending on where you found it:

 * If the bug happened while you were using one of the Ubuntu family, read our guide ReportingUbuntuBugs.
 * For other software that manages its bugs using Launchpad, read our guide ReportingSoftwareProjectBugs.
