21 The tool reads problem directory DIR. Then it logs in to MantisBT and
22 tries to find an issue with the same duphash HEXSTRING in abrt_hash
23 field.
24
25 If such issue is not found, then a new issue is created. Elements of
26 DIR are stored in the issue as part of issue description or as
27 attachments, depending on their type and size.
28
29 Otherwise, if such issue is found and it is marked as CLOSED DUPLICATE,
30 the tool follows the chain of duplicates until it finds a non-DUPLICATE
31 issue. The tool adds a new note to found issue.
32
33 The URL to new or modified issue is printed to stdout and recorded in
34 reported_to element in DIR.
35
36 Option -t uploads FILEs to the already created issue on MantisBT site.
37 The issue ID is retrieved from directory specified by -d DIR. If
38 problem data in DIR was never reported to MantisBT, upload will fail.
39
40 Option -tID uploads FILEs to the issue with specified ID on MantisBT
41 site. -d DIR is ignored.
42
43 Option -r sets the last url from reporter_to element which is prefixed
44 with TRACKER_NAME to URL field. This option is applied only when a new
45 issue is to be filed. The default value is ABRT Server"
