	If you hit a problem with anything in pkgsrc you should definitely
	let people know - you can post to the list, but using 'send-pr'
	is the best way to make sure it doesn't get lost.

	If you type 'script' before running a command or series of
	commands, then 'exit' when done you should find everything that
	has happened in a file called 'typescript'. You probably want to
	only send the last section in with a bug report :)
