**For recording issues that ''only'' apply to the master branch in Git (see [[Brief_introduction_to_Git#Types_of_branches|Types of Branches]]), use next un-released version e.g.: 6.1.0 as shown on the [https://gramps-project.org/bugs/roadmap_page.php| MantisBT Roadmap].
* Addon Version
** If you are reporting a bug in an third-party addon, use the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Using_the_Addon_Manager...|'''Addon Manager''']] or [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Plugin_Manager|'''Plugin Manager ''']] (or even the [[Addon:Plugin Manager|Enhanced Plugin Manager - addon]]) to find the version of the addon and include it in the report.
