NAME
bts - developers' command line interface to the Debian Bug Tracking System
SYNOPSIS
bts [options] command [args] [#comment] [.|, command [args] [#comment]] ...
DESCRIPTION
This is a command line interface to the Debian Bug Tracking System (BTS), intended mainly
for use by developers. It lets the BTS be manipulated using simple commands that can be
run at the prompt or in a script, does various sanity checks on the input, and constructs
and sends a mail to the BTS control address for you. A local cache of web pages and
e-mails from the BTS may also be created and updated.
In general, the command line interface is the same as what you would write in a mail to
control@bugs.debian.org, just prefixed with "bts". For example:
% bts severity 69042 normal
% bts merge 69042 43233
% bts retitle 69042 blah blah
A few additional commands have been added for your convenience, and this program is less
strict about what constitutes a valid bug number. For example, "severity Bug#85942 normal"
is understood, as is "severity #85942 normal". (Of course, your shell may regard "#" as a
comment character though, so you may need to quote it!)
Also, for your convenience, this program allows you to abbreviate commands to the shortest
unique substring (similar to how cvs lets you abbreviate commands). So it understands
things like "bts cl 85942".
It is also possible to include a comment in the mail sent to the BTS. If your shell does
not strip out the comment in a command like "bts severity 30321 normal #inflated
severity", then this program is smart enough to figure out where the comment is, and
include it in the email. Note that most shells do strip out such comments before they get
to the program, unless the comment is quoted. (Something like "bts severity #85942
normal" will not be treated as a comment!)
You can specify multiple commands by separating them with a single dot, rather like
update-rc.d; a single comma may also be used; all the commands will then be sent in a
single mail. It is important the dot/comma is surrounded by whitespace so it is not
mistaken for part of a command. For example (quoting where necessary so that bts sees the
comment):
% bts severity 95672 normal , merge 95672 95673 \#they are the same!
The abbreviation "it" may be used to refer to the last mentioned bug number, so you could
write:
% bts severity 95672 wishlist , retitle it "bts: please add a --foo option"
Please use this program responsibly, and do take our users into consideration.
OPTIONS
bts examines the devscripts configuration files as described below. Command line options
override the configuration file settings, though.
-o, --offline
Make bts use cached bugs for the show and bugs commands, if a cache is available for
the requested data. See the cache command, below for information on setting up a
cache.
--online, --no-offline
Opposite of --offline; overrides any configuration file directive to work offline.
-n, --no-action
Do not send emails but print them to standard output.
--cache, --no-cache
Should we attempt to cache new versions of BTS pages when performing show/bugs
commands? Default is to cache.
--cache-mode={min|mbox|full}
When running a bts cache command, should we only mirror the basic bug (min), or should
we also mirror the mbox version (mbox), or should we mirror the whole thing, including
the mbox and the boring attachments to the BTS bug pages and the acknowledgement
emails (full)? Default is min.
--cache-delay=seconds
Time in seconds to delay between each download, to avoid hammering the BTS web server.
Default is 5 seconds.
--mbox
Open a mail reader to read the mbox corresponding to a given bug number for show and
bugs commands.
--mailreader=READER
Specify the command to read the mbox. Must contain a "%s" string (unquoted!), which
will be replaced by the name of the mbox file. The command will be split on white
space and will not be passed to a shell. Default is 'mutt -f %s'. (Also, %% will be
substituted by a single % if this is needed.)
--cc-addr=CC_EMAIL_ADDRESS
Send carbon copies to a list of users. CC_EMAIL_ADDRESS should be a comma-separated
list of email addresses. Multiple options add more CCs.
--use-default-cc
Add the addresses specified in the configuration file option BTS_DEFAULT_CC to the
list specified using --cc-addr. This is the default.
--no-use-default-cc
Do not add addresses specified in BTS_DEFAULT_CC to the carbon copy list.
--sendmail=SENDMAILCMD
Specify the sendmail command. The command will be split on white space and will not
be passed to a shell. Default is /usr/sbin/sendmail. The -t option will be
automatically added if the command is /usr/sbin/sendmail or /usr/sbin/exim*. For
other mailers, if they require a -t option, this must be included in the SENDMAILCMD,
for example: --sendmail="/usr/sbin/mymailer -t".
--mutt
Use mutt for sending of mails. Default is not to use mutt, except for some commands.
Note that one of $DEBEMAIL or $EMAIL must be set in the environment in order to use
mutt to send emails.
--no-mutt
Don't use mutt for sending of mails.
--soap-timeout=SECONDS
Specify a timeout for SOAP calls as used by the select and status commands.
--smtp-host=SMTPHOST
Specify an SMTP host. If given, bts will send mail by talking directly to this SMTP
host rather than by invoking a sendmail command.
The host name may be followed by a colon (":") and a port number in order to use a
port other than the default. It may also begin with "ssmtp://" or "smtps://" to
indicate that SMTPS should be used.
If SMTPS not specified, bts will still try to use STARTTLS if it's advertised by the
SMTP host.
Note that one of $DEBEMAIL or $EMAIL must be set in the environment in order to use
direct SMTP connections to send emails.
Note that when sending directly via an SMTP host, specifying addresses in --cc-addr or
BTS_DEFAULT_CC that the SMTP host will not relay will cause the SMTP host to reject
the entire mail.
Note also that the use of the reassign command may, when either --mutt or
--force-interactive mode is enabled, lead to the automatic addition of a Cc to
$newpackage@packages.debian.org. In these cases, the note above regarding relaying
applies. The submission interface (port 587) on reportbug.debian.org does not support
relaying and, as such, should not be used as an SMTP server for bts under the
circumstances described in this paragraph.
--smtp-username=USERNAME, --smtp-password=PASSWORD
Specify the credentials to use when connecting to the SMTP server specified by
--smtp-host. If the server does not require authentication then these options should
not be used.
If a username is specified but not a password, bts will prompt for the password before
sending the mail.
--smtp-helo=HELO
Specify the name to use in the HELO command when connecting to the SMTP server;
defaults to the contents of the file /etc/mailname, if it exists.
Note that some SMTP servers may reject the use of a HELO which either does not resolve
or does not appear to belong to the host using it.
--bts-server
Use a debbugs server other than https://bugs.debian.org.
-f, --force-refresh
Download a bug report again, even if it does not appear to have changed since the last
cache command. Useful if a --cache-mode=full is requested for the first time
(otherwise unchanged bug reports will not be downloaded again, even if the boring bits
have not been downloaded).
--no-force-refresh
Suppress any configuration file --force-refresh option.
--only-new
Download only new bugs when caching. Do not check for updates in bugs we already have.
--include-resolved
When caching bug reports, include those that are marked as resolved. This is the
default behaviour.
--no-include-resolved
Reverse the behaviour of the previous option. That is, do not cache bugs that are
marked as resolved.
--no-ack
Suppress acknowledgment mails from the BTS. Note that this will only affect the
copies of messages CCed to bugs, not those sent to the control bot.
--ack
Do not suppress acknowledgement mails. This is the default behaviour.
-i, --interactive
Before sending an e-mail to the control bot, display the content and allow it to be
edited, or the sending cancelled.
--force-interactive
Similar to --interactive, with the exception that an editor is spawned before
prompting for confirmation of the message to be sent.
--no-interactive
Send control e-mails without confirmation. This is the default behaviour.
-q, --quiet
When running bts cache, only display information about newly cached pages, not
messages saying already cached. If this option is specified twice, only output error
messages (to stderr).
--no-conf, --noconf
Do not read any configuration files. This can only be used as the first option given
on the command-line.
COMMANDS
For full details about the commands, see the BTS documentation.
<https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control>
show [options] [bug number | package | maintainer | : ] [opt=val ...]
show [options] [src:package | from:submitter] [opt=val ...]
show [options] [tag:tag | usertag:tag ] [opt=val ...]
show [release-critical | release-critical/... | RC]
This is a synonym for bts bugs.
bugs [options] [bug_number | package | maintainer | : ] [opt=val ...]
bugs [options] [src:package | from:submitter] [opt=val ...]
bugs [options] [tag:tag | usertag:tag ] [opt=val ...]
bugs [release-critical | release-critical/... | RC]
Display the page listing the requested bugs in a web browser using
sensible-browser(1).
Options may be specified after the bugs command in addition to or instead of options
at the start of the command line: recognised options at this point are:
-o/--offline/--online, -m/--mbox, --mailreader and --[no-]cache. These are described
earlier in this manpage. If either the -o or --offline option is used, or there is
already an up-to-date copy in the local cache, the cached version will be used.
The meanings of the possible arguments are as follows:
(none) If nothing is specified, bts bugs will display your bugs, assuming that either
DEBEMAIL or EMAIL (examined in that order) is set to the appropriate email
address.
bug_number
Display bug number bug_number.
package Display the bugs for the package package.
src:package
Display the bugs for the source package package.
maintainer
Display the bugs for the maintainer email address maintainer.
from:submitter
Display the bugs for the submitter email address submitter.
tag:tag Display the bugs which are tagged with tag.
usertag:tag
Display the bugs which are tagged with usertag tag. See the BTS documentation
for more information on usertags. This will require the use of a users=email
option.
: Details of the bug tracking system itself, along with a bug-request page with
more options than this script, can be found on https://bugs.debian.org/. This
page itself will be opened if the command 'bts bugs :' is used.
release-critical, RC
Display the front page of the release-critical pages on the BTS. This is a
synonym for https://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/index.html. It is also
possible to say release-critical/debian/main.html and the like. RC is a
synonym for release-critical/other/all.html.
After the argument specifying what to display, you can optionally specify options to
use to format the page or change what it displayed. These are passed to the BTS in
the URL downloaded. For example, pass dist=stable to see bugs affecting the stable
version of a package, version=1.0 to see bugs affecting that version of a package, or
reverse=yes to display newest messages first in a bug log.
If caching has been enabled (that is, --no-cache has not been used, and BTS_CACHE has
not been set to no), then any page requested by bts show will automatically be cached,
and be available offline thereafter. Pages which are automatically cached in this way
will be deleted on subsequent "bts show|bugs|cache" invocations if they have not been
accessed in 30 days. Warning: on a filesystem mounted with the "noatime" option,
running "bts show|bugs" does not update the cache files' access times; a cached bug
will then be subject to auto-cleaning 30 days after its initial download, even if it
has been accessed in the meantime.
Any other bts commands following this on the command line will be executed after the
browser has been exited.
The desired browser can be specified and configured by setting the BROWSER environment
variable. The conventions follow those defined by Eric Raymond at
http://www.catb.org/~esr/BROWSER/; we here reproduce the relevant part.
The value of BROWSER may consist of a colon-separated series of browser command parts.
These should be tried in order until one succeeds. Each command part may optionally
contain the string %s; if it does, the URL to be viewed is substituted there. If a
command part does not contain %s, the browser is to be launched as if the URL had been
supplied as its first argument. The string %% must be substituted as a single %.
Rationale: We need to be able to specify multiple browser commands so programs obeying
this convention can do the right thing in either X or console environments, trying X
first. Specifying multiple commands may also be useful for people who share files like
.profile across multiple systems. We need %s because some popular browsers have
remote-invocation syntax that requires it. Unless %% reduces to %, it won't be
possible to have a literal %s in the string.
For example, on most Linux systems a good thing to do would be:
BROWSER='mozilla -raise -remote "openURL(%s,new-window)":links'
select [key:value ...]
Uses the SOAP interface to output a list of bugs which match the given selection
requirements.
The following keys are allowed, and may be given multiple times.
package Binary package name.
source Source package name.
maintainer
E-mail address of the maintainer.
submitter
E-mail address of the submitter.
severity
Bug severity.
status Status of the bug. One of open, done, or forwarded.
tag Tags applied to the bug. If users is specified, may include usertags in
addition to the standard tags.
owner Bug's owner.
correspondent
Address of someone who sent mail to the log.
affects Bugs which affect this package.
bugs List of bugs to search within.
users Users to use when looking up usertags.
archive Whether to search archived bugs or normal bugs; defaults to 0 (i.e. only
search normal bugs). As a special case, if archive is both, both archived and
unarchived bugs are returned.
For example, to select the set of bugs submitted by jrandomdeveloper@example.com and
tagged wontfix, one would use
bts select submitter:jrandomdeveloper@example.com tag:wontfix
If a key is used multiple times then the set of bugs selected includes those matching
any of the supplied values; for example
bts select package:foo severity:wishlist severity:minor
returns all bugs of package foo with either wishlist or minor severity.
status [bug | file:file | fields:field[,field ...] | verbose] ...
Uses the SOAP interface to output status information for the given bugs (or as read
from the listed files -- use - to indicate STDIN).
By default, all populated fields for a bug are displayed.
If verbose is given, empty fields will also be displayed.
If fields is given, only those fields will be displayed. No validity checking is
performed on any specified fields.
clone bug new_ID [new_ID ...]
The clone control command allows you to duplicate a bug report. It is useful in the
case where a single report actually indicates that multiple distinct bugs have
occurred. "New IDs" are negative numbers, separated by spaces, which may be used in
subsequent control commands to refer to the newly duplicated bugs. A new report is
generated for each new ID.
done bug [version]
Mark a bug as Done. This forces interactive mode since done messages should include an
explanation why the bug is being closed. You should specify which version of the
package closed the bug, if possible.
reopen bug [submitter]
Reopen a bug, with optional submitter.
archive bug
Archive a bug that has previously been archived but is currently not. The bug must
fulfill all of the requirements for archiving with the exception of those that are
time-based.
unarchive bug
Unarchive a bug that is currently archived.
retitle bug title
Change the title of the bug.
summary bug [messagenum]
Select a message number that should be used as the summary of a bug.
If no message number is given, the summary is cleared.
submitter bug [bug ...] submitter-email
Change the submitter address of a bug or a number of bugs, with ! meaning `use the
address on the current email as the new submitter address'.
reassign bug [bug ...] package [version]
Reassign a bug or a number of bugs to a different package. The version field is
optional; see the explanation at <https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control>.
found bug [version]
Indicate that a bug was found to exist in a particular package version. Without
version, the list of fixed versions is cleared and the bug is reopened.
notfound bug version
Remove the record that bug was encountered in the given version of the package to
which it is assigned.
fixed bug version
Indicate that a bug was fixed in a particular package version, without affecting the
bug's open/closed status.
notfixed bug version
Remove the record that a bug was fixed in the given version of the package to which it
is assigned.
This is equivalent to the sequence of commands "found bug version", "notfound bug
version".
block bug by|with bug [bug ...]
Note that a bug is blocked from being fixed by a set of other bugs.
unblock bug by|with bug [bug ...]
Note that a bug is no longer blocked from being fixed by a set of other bugs.
merge bug bug [bug ...]
Merge a set of bugs together.
forcemerge bug bug [bug ...]
Forcibly merge a set of bugs together. The first bug listed is the master bug, and its
settings (those which must be equal in a normal merge) are assigned to the bugs listed
next.
unmerge bug
Unmerge a bug.
tag bug [+|-|=] tag [tag ...]
tags bug [+|-|=] tag [tag ...]
Set or unset a tag on a bug. The tag may either be the exact tag name or it may be
abbreviated to any unique tag substring. (So using fixed will set the tag fixed, not
fixed-upstream, for example, but fix would not be acceptable.) Multiple tags may be
specified as well. The two commands (tag and tags) are identical. At least one tag
must be specified, unless the = flag is used, where the command
bts tags <bug> =
will remove all tags from the specified bug.
Adding/removing the security tag will add "team\@security.debian.org" to the Cc list
of the control email.
The list of valid tags and their significance is available at
<https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#tags>. The current valid tags are:
patch, wontfix, moreinfo, unreproducible, fixed, help, security, upstream, pending,
d-i, confirmed, ipv6, lfs, fixed-upstream, l10n, newcomer, a11y, ftbfs
There is also a tag for each release of Debian since "potato". Note that this list may
be out of date, see the website for the most up to date source.
affects bug [+|-|=] package [package ...]
Indicates that a bug affects a package other than that against which it is filed,
causing the bug to be listed by default in the package list of the other package.
This should generally be used where the bug is severe enough to cause multiple reports
from users to be assigned to the wrong package. At least one package must be
specified, unless the = flag is used, where the command
bts affects <bug> =
will remove all indications that bug affects other packages.
user email
Specify a user email address before using the usertags command.
usertag bug [+|-|=] tag [tag ...]
usertags bug [+|-|=] tag [tag ...]
Set or unset a user tag on a bug. The tag must be the exact tag name wanted; there are
no defaults or checking of tag names. Multiple tags may be specified as well. The two
commands (usertag and usertags) are identical. At least one tag must be specified,
unless the = flag is used, where the command
bts usertags <bug> =
will remove all user tags from the specified bug.
claim bug [claim]
Record that you have claimed a bug (e.g. for a bug squashing party). claim should be
a unique token allowing the bugs you have claimed to be identified; an e-mail address
is often used.
If no claim is specified, the environment variable DEBEMAIL or EMAIL (checked in that
order) is used.
unclaim bug [claim]
Remove the record that you have claimed a bug.
If no claim is specified, the environment variable DEBEMAIL or EMAIL (checked in that
order) is used.
severity bug severity
Change the severity of a bug. Available severities are: wishlist, minor, normal,
important, serious, grave, critical. The severity may be abbreviated to any unique
substring.
forwarded bug address
Mark the bug as forwarded to the given address (usually an email address or a URL for
an upstream bug tracker).
notforwarded bug
Mark a bug as not forwarded.
package [package ...]
The following commands will only apply to bugs against the listed packages; this acts
as a safety mechanism for the BTS. If no packages are listed, this check is turned
off again.
limit [key[:value]] ...
The following commands will only apply to bugs which meet the specified criterion;
this acts as a safety mechanism for the BTS. If no values are listed, the limits for
that key are turned off again. If no keys are specified, all limits are reset.
submitter
E-mail address of the submitter.
date Date the bug was submitted.
subject Subject of the bug.
msgid Message-id of the initial bug report.
package Binary package name.
source Source package name.
tag Tags applied to the bug.
severity
Bug severity.
owner Bug's owner.
affects Bugs affecting this package.
archive Whether to search archived bugs or normal bugs; defaults to 0 (i.e. only
search normal bugs). As a special case, if archive is both, both archived and
unarchived bugs are returned.
For example, to limit the set of bugs affected by the subsequent control commands to
those submitted by jrandomdeveloper@example.com and tagged wontfix, one would use
bts limit submitter:jrandomdeveloper@example.com tag:wontfix
If a key is used multiple times then the set of bugs selected includes those matching
any of the supplied values; for example
bts limit package:foo severity:wishlist severity:minor
only applies the subsequent control commands to bugs of package foo with either
wishlist or minor severity.
owner bug owner-email
Change the "owner" address of a bug, with ! meaning `use the address on the current
email as the new owner address'.
The owner of a bug accepts responsibility for dealing with it.
noowner bug
Mark a bug as having no "owner".
subscribe bug [email]
Subscribe the given email address to the specified bug report. If no email address is
specified, the environment variable DEBEMAIL or EMAIL (in that order) is used. If
those are not set, or ! is given as email address, your default address will be used.
After executing this command, you will be sent a subscription confirmation to which
you have to reply. When subscribed to a bug report, you receive all relevant emails
and notifications. Use the unsubscribe command to unsubscribe.
unsubscribe bug [email]
Unsubscribe the given email address from the specified bug report. As with subscribe
above, if no email address is specified, the environment variables DEBEMAIL or EMAIL
(in that order) is used. If those are not set, or ! is given as email address, your
default address will be used.
After executing this command, you will be sent an unsubscription confirmation to which
you have to reply. Use the subscribe command to, well, subscribe.
reportspam bug ...
The reportspam command allows you to report a bug report as containing spam. It saves
one from having to go to the bug web page to do so.
spamreport bug ...
spamreport is a synonym for reportspam.
cache [options] [maint_email | pkg | src:pkg | from:submitter]
cache [options] [release-critical | release-critical/... | RC]
Generate or update a cache of bug reports for the given email address or package. By
default it downloads all bugs belonging to the email address in the DEBEMAIL
environment variable (or the EMAIL environment variable if DEBEMAIL is unset). This
command may be repeated to cache bugs belonging to several people or packages. If
multiple packages or addresses are supplied, bugs belonging to any of the arguments
will be cached; those belonging to more than one of the arguments will only be
downloaded once. The cached bugs are stored in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/devscripts/bts/ or, if
XDG_CACHE_HOME is not set, in ~/.cache/devscripts/bts/.
You can use the cached bugs with the -o switch. For example:
bts -o bugs
bts -o show 12345
Also, bts will update the files in it in a piecemeal fashion as it downloads
information from the BTS using the show command. You might thus set up the cache, and
update the whole thing once a week, while letting the automatic cache updates update
the bugs you frequently refer to during the week.
Some options affect the behaviour of the cache command. The first is the setting of
--cache-mode, which controls how much bts downloads of the referenced links from the
bug page, including boring bits such as the acknowledgement emails, emails to the
control bot, and the mbox version of the bug report. It can take three values: min
(the minimum), mbox (download the minimum plus the mbox version of the bug report) or
full (the whole works). The second is --force-refresh or -f, which forces the
download, even if the cached bug report is up-to-date. The --include-resolved option
indicates whether bug reports marked as resolved should be downloaded during caching.
Each of these is configurable from the configuration file, as described below. They
may also be specified after the cache command as well as at the start of the command
line.
Finally, -q or --quiet will suppress messages about caches being up-to-date, and
giving the option twice will suppress all cache messages (except for error messages).
Beware of caching RC, though: it will take a LONG time! (With 1000+ RC bugs and a
delay of 5 seconds between bugs, you're looking at a minimum of 1.5 hours, and
probably significantly more than that.)
cleancache package | src:package | maintainer
cleancache from:submitter | tag:tag | usertag:tag | number | ALL
Clean the cache for the specified package, maintainer, etc., as described above for
the bugs command, or clean the entire cache if ALL is specified. This is useful if you
are going to have permanent network access or if the database has become corrupted for
some reason. Note that for safety, this command does not default to the value of
DEBEMAIL or EMAIL.
listcachedbugs [number]
List cached bug ids (intended to support bash completion). The optional number
argument restricts the list to those bug ids that start with that number.
version
Display version and copyright information.
help
Display a short summary of commands, suspiciously similar to parts of this man page.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
DEBEMAIL
If this is set, the From: line in the email will be set to use this email address
instead of your normal email address (as would be determined by mail).
DEBFULLNAME
If DEBEMAIL is set, DEBFULLNAME is examined to determine the full name to use; if this
is not set, bts attempts to determine a name from your passwd entry.
BROWSER
If set, it specifies the browser to use for the show and bugs options. See the
description above.
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts are sourced by a shell
in that order to set configuration variables. Command line options can be used to
override configuration file settings. Environment variable settings are ignored for this
purpose. The currently recognised variables are:
BTS_OFFLINE
If this is set to yes, then it is the same as the --offline command line parameter
being used. Only has an effect on the show and bugs commands. The default is no.
See the description of the show command above for more information.
BTS_CACHE
If this is set to no, then it is the same as the --no-cache command line parameter
being used. Only has an effect on the show and bug commands. The default is yes.
Again, see the show command above for more information.
BTS_CACHE_MODE={min,mbox,full}
How much of the BTS should we mirror when we are asked to cache something? Just the
minimum, or also the mbox or the whole thing? The default is min, and it has the same
meaning as the --cache-mode command line parameter. Only has an effect on the cache.
See the cache command for more information.
BTS_FORCE_REFRESH
If this is set to yes, then it is the same as the --force-refresh command line
parameter being used. Only has an effect on the cache command. The default is no.
See the cache command for more information.
BTS_MAIL_READER
If this is set, specifies a mail reader to use instead of mutt. Same as the
--mailreader command line option.
BTS_SENDMAIL_COMMAND
If this is set, specifies a sendmail command to use instead of /usr/sbin/sendmail.
Same as the --sendmail command line option.
BTS_ONLY_NEW
Download only new bugs when caching. Do not check for updates in bugs we already have.
The default is no. Same as the --only-new command line option.
BTS_SMTP_HOST
If this is set, specifies an SMTP host to use for sending mail rather than using the
sendmail command. Same as the --smtp-host command line option.
Note that this option takes priority over BTS_SENDMAIL_COMMAND if both are set, unless
the --sendmail option is used.
BTS_SMTP_AUTH_USERNAME, BTS_SMTP_AUTH_PASSWORD
If these options are set, then it is the same as the --smtp-username and
--smtp-password options being used.
BTS_SMTP_HELO
Same as the --smtp-helo command line option.
BTS_INCLUDE_RESOLVED
If this is set to no, then it is the same as the --no-include-resolved command line
parameter being used. Only has an effect on the cache command. The default is yes.
See the cache command for more information.
BTS_SUPPRESS_ACKS
If this is set to yes, then it is the same as the --no-ack command line parameter
being used. The default is no.
BTS_INTERACTIVE
If this is set to yes or force, then it is the same as the --interactive or
--force-interactive command line parameter being used. The default is no.
BTS_DEFAULT_CC
Specify a list of e-mail addresses to which a carbon copy of the generated e-mail to
the control bot should automatically be sent.
BTS_SERVER
Specify the name of a debbugs server which should be used instead of
https://bugs.debian.org.
