Heyo,

during my research of how to submit my previous bug report, I noticed
the link to the `debbugs` user guide, last sentence in section "22.7.2
Debbugs User Interfaces" is broken. The reason for it seems to be
located on line 1526 of `doc/contributing.texi`.

Best wishes,

Jonas

Indeed, the link is fine for the Info manual but the link points to


in the HTML manual. Well, it is another item to the list reported by
bug#29593 [1]. :-)

I noticed the broken html link before but never tracked down the correct
link to patch it. But just now a search gave me
