File an issue

If you haven't already, first see TROUBLESHOOTING for known issues, solutions and workarounds.

You can report bugs and feature requests to GitHub Issues.

Please don't ask question in the issue tracker, instead ask them in our Google group or on #guard (irc.freenode.net).

Try to figure out where the issue belongs to: Is it an issue with Listen itself or with Guard?

It's most likely that your bug gets resolved faster if you provide as much information as possible!

The MOST useful information is debugging output from Listen (LISTEN_GEM_DEBUGGING=1) - see TROUBLESHOOTING for details.
