-.TH GStreamer 1 "June 2002"
-.SH "NAME"
-gst\-feedback - generate debug info for GStreamer bug reports
-.SH "SYNOPSIS"
-.B  gst-feedback
-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-\fIgst\-feedback\fP is a utility that scans the system for various
-information that is useful to GStreamer developers to help diagnose
-user problem.
-.PP
-Depending on the type of bug report, it may be useful to attach the
-output of \fIgst\-feedback\fP when you contact the developers.
-.PP
-NOTE: The current version of this script scans many dirs:
-/usr/lib /usr/local/lib /home /usr/include /usr/local/include /home (again)
-for various GStreamer installations.  Depending on your system you may not
-want to do this.  Improvements to the script are welcome.
-.SH "USAGE"
-Generate the feedback information by running \fIgst\-feedback\fP:
-.TP 8
-.B  gst\-feedback
-.TP -8
-Possibly redirect output and errors to a file:
-.TP 8
-.B  gst\-feedback &> myfeedback
-.SH "WARNING"
-The \fIgst\-feedback\fP dumps a lot of information about a system, some
-of which may be considered sensitive.  If this is a concern, review the
-information before posting to a public forum, such as the GStreamer bug
-tracking system.
