  • Search Bugzilla before posting a bump request - is there already a bug open? Has the local Portage tree been synced lately; is it already in Portage?
  • Avoid zero-day bump requests (wait at least 48 hours after the release announcement)
  • Has it actually been released by upstream sources, or is it just marked in the source tree? Some projects mark a release in the tree long time before it is officially released.
  • Be sure to mention if it compiles and runs well on your arch. Any other helpful information you provide is most welcome.
  • Add a link to the upstream website
  • Give a link or list of fixed bugs or new features (sometimes called changelog)
  • Write a summary in the form app-editors/vim-12.3.5 version bump
