Jun 13 21:55:08 host whoopsie-upload-all[1059564]: ERROR: whoopsie.path is not enabled Jun 13 21:55:08 host systemd[1]: apport-autoreport.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Jun 13 21:55:08 host systemd[1]: apport-autoreport.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. Jun 13 21:55:08 host systemd[1]: Failed to start apport-autoreport.service - Process error reports when automatic reporting is enabled. ``` This service failure might mislead user thinking that there is a problem. [ Test Plan ] 1. Disable auto-reporting in the system setting: * open gnome-control-center or unity-control-center * Switch to "Security & Privacy" panel * Select "Diagnosticts" tab * unselect "Send error reports to Canonical" 2. Produce a crash, e.g. by running divide-by-zero from chaos-marmosets 3. Check that apport-autoreport.service is failing as above 4. Upgrade Apport to the fixed version 5. Restart apport-autoreport.service 6. apport-autoreport.service should exit successfully [ Where problems could occur ] This code change touches the auto-reporting part. Failures there could lead to less bugs being forwarded to the error tracker. This might be noticeable when looking at the number of submissions.
