Unless I'm mistaken (which is possible), this bug is affecting many, many users who are being greeted at login with a rather nasty looking alert for myriad small errors caught at logout or shutdown (e.g. Google Chrome not exiting correctly - a common occurrence).
This massively impacts the perceived stability of a platform, and the perceived usefulness of bug reporting. After apport switched to on-by- default in 12.04(?) there are dozens of hits on search engines for how to remove the error message at login, almost all of which direct the user to disable apport. Clearly this tool is not fulfilling its purpose, and is now causing the OS to look buggy. As an aside, having clicked 'report this bug' at nearly every login for the past year, I also find it hard to believe these logs are actually being processed and recorded anywhere useful. We've wandered into 'Inform Microsoft about this problem' territory. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1033932 Title: Error alerts appear on login for problems in previous session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/apport/+bug/1033932/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
