# Open the Family Tree Manager and create a new database
# Import the example data set into your empty new database. You will find the example data in a file called example/gramps/example.gramps. The actual location of the top level "example" directory will depend on where you have installed GRAMPS on your system, though typically you will find it at /usr/share/gramps/example if you have installed GRAMPS from a package.
The example data set contains people, families and events that you can use to try and reproduce the problem.
==Recording the steps that reproduce the bug==
When you have reached the point where you can consistently re-create your problem using your test database you should then you need to open a bug report and document the steps you take took to produce the problem. Make sure that you record your instructions in explicit detail so that a developer can follow your exact steps. State which people, families etc that you are using by quoting their Gramps ID.
