From da514157c4f063527204adc8e9642a18a77fccc9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thorsten Leemhuis Date: Fri, 4 Dec 2020 07:43:50 +0100 Subject: docs: make reporting-bugs.rst obsolete Make various places which point to Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst point to Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst instead. That document is brand new and as of now is not completely finished. But even at this stage it's a lot more helpful and accurate than reporting-bugs.rst. Hence also add a note to reporting-bugs.rst, telling people they're better off reading reporting-issues.rst instead. reporting-bugs.rst is scheduled for removal once reporting-issues.rst is considered ready.
