Title:
Stable Release Update to provide possiblity of automatically reporting
crashes
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in apport source package in Trusty:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[Test Case]
-----------
1) Install apport-noui
2) Verify /var/lib/apport/autoreport is created
3) sleep 1000 &
4) pkill -11 sleep
5) observe /var/crash/_bin_sleep.crash file
6) wait a wee bit
7) observe /var/crash/_bin_sleep.upload and .uploaded are created
The version of apport in Ubuntu 14.04 is missing a few changes that
would allow users to install apport-noui and allow crash reports to be
submitted automatically from systems with it installed. The changes
are the following:
* debian/apport-noui.upstart: remove early exit (LP: #1235436)
* debian/apport-noui.dirs: create /var/lib/apport (LP: #1235436)
* data/whoopsie-upload-all: backport utopic version of it
* apport-noui: make the package installation automatically enable
autosubmission, and update the package description accordingly.
LP: #1351137.
The changes to whoopsie-upload-all can be found in this revision
(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-
dev/ubuntu/vivid/apport/ubuntu/revision/2351) and they were fixing LP:
#1354318. It would be useful if users of 14.04 could install apport-
noui and have crash reports automatically submitted for them.
