This file contains a list of known but not yet fixed bugs in ngspice.
===========================================================================
How to submit a bug report:
There are two methods to report a bug you have discovered in ngspice:
* Bug tracker: This is the preferred method of reporting a bug.
Using the tracker on Sourceforge.net site will make your report
open by everyone and the chances of finding a fix will increase.
* ngspice-devel list: If you are a member of this list, you can write
directly to the developers' list. Do not subscribe to the list only
for sending bug reports.
Before sending a bug report please note: all information you send to the bug
tracking system or on the mailing lists is public. If you need to send
sensitive information, send them to a developer directly but still write non
sensitive data on the bug tracking system to keep track of bug history.

* return value:
When ngspice is called in batch mode it returns 1 even if the simulations
are run. The problem arises when there is a .control section but no
.print, .plot or .fourier lines. Ngspice outputs:
Note: No ".plot", ".print", or ".fourier" lines; no simulations run
and exits returning 1.
Workaround: add -r <dummyfile> to the command line to avoid this.
* please refer to the sourceforge bug tracker at
