I'm working on a lujvo for "debug," as in "locate and correct errors
in computer program code."

I've got:

cfila : c1 (property - ka) is a flaw/fault/defect in c2 causing c3.
sisku : s1 seeks/searches/looks for property s2 among set s3.

which creates the lujvo cfisisku, which one could define:

s1 debugs computer program c2 for flaw/property c1==s2 causing c3

To me, the sumti places map extremely well, I'm very pleased to see
it that way.  I'm concerned about defining the x2 places as needing
to be a computer program, as that doesn't follow at all from the
gismu that make up this word.

I could add skami as part of the Lujvo:

  samcfisisku

But now I have two words to define, and I'm not sure what gloss
words I would use to define cfisisku.  Is it wise to add the sam
rafsi?

I'd also like to add a Lojban definition for this lujvo.  I'm
uncertain as to how to do this, and would appreciate help improving
what I've got:

  ko'a sisku lo ka cfila goi ko'e lo samselpla goi ko'i

I've missed specifying the c3 place, and I haven't linked any of the
xN places to xN places in the gismu definitions.  Will you point me
in the right direction?
