If you find a bug in QGIS, you can report it using the QGIS ticket/bug database at:

for the list of current bugs.

Some hints about when you should file a bug:
10+
11+
12+
- just because a bug is filed doesnt always mean we can or will fix it.
13+
Sometimes people ask for things that will require many man hours to to and
14+
offer little reward to work ratio benifit when compared to the other issues
15+
in the queue. Also some things are simply not fixable due to whatever
16+
technical reason.
17+
- sometimes we don't fix a bug because the user's vision of how QGIS should
18+
behave doesn't match ours. Hey we are all humans it can happen...
19+
- always check that your bug has not already been filed by someone else since
20+
dealing with duplicate tickets causes a lot of time wasting.
21+
- always provide contact details and make sure you are subscribed to the
22+
ticket entry (either by adding yourself to CC field or by logging in before
23+
filing the ticket).
24+
- dont be offended if we don't see tickets as having the same priority as you
25+
do. While we appreciate it's inconvenient if some issue prevents you doing
26+
your work, we need to take the big picture view of things and focus on
27+
things that affect the largest proportion of our user base.
