Research direction
The issue is in the CONTRIBUTING.md file, specifically in the 'Improving the GNU compatibility' section. The links point to a non existent DEVELOPMENT.html. Check the repository's documentation structure (likely a docs/ directory) to find the correct target file, e.g., DEVELOPMENT.md or a different anchor. Update the links accordingly or create the missing page.
