Hello Cristian, or anyone else affected, Accepted apport into cosmic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/2.20.10-0ubuntu13.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-cosmic to verification-done-cosmic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-cosmic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu Cosmic) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-cosmic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1787729 Title: apport-autoreport.service fails if whoopsie isn't running Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in apport source package in Cosmic: Fix Committed Bug description: Impact ------ If automatic crash reporting is enabled and apport-autoreport.service starts before whoopsie on boot then crash reports that happened during shutdown or start up will not be automatically uploaded to the error tracker. Test Case --------- 1) install apport-noui 2) sudo service apport stop 3) modify /usr/share/apport/whoopsie-upload-all to exit(1) thereby recreating the situation where whoopsie isn't running. I did this by copying lines 159,160 to 161,162 and unindenting them. N.B. this isn't necessary if you are on a system where whoopsie is starting after apport. 4) touch /var/crash/my.crash 5) reboot 5) run 'systemctl status apport-autoreport.service' and observe it failed because whoopsie isn't running When testing the proposed version of apport you'll want to revert the changes you made to whoopsie-upload-all. With the version of apport from -proposed you should no longer see the failure message for the apport-autoreport.service. The best test case is just having an affected system test the package from -proposed though. Regression Potential -------------------- We are clearly fixing something that was a mistake in the original service so there is little chance for regression. -------- ProblemType: BugDistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.10 Package: apport 2.20.10-0ubuntu7 Uname: Linux 4.18.3-041803-generic x86_64 ApportLog: ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu7 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sat Aug 18 11:48:00 2018 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-10-13 (308 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Alpha amd64 (20170926) PackageArchitecture: allSourcePackage: apport UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1787729/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
