[Bug 855967] Re: vinagre crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast()

 

So vinaigre crashed (Ubuntu 11.04) and sent me through the bug reporting
process, collecting 50MB of reporting information and uploading it all.

Here in Launchpad, I was offered two similar crashes and asked if either
matched mine.  Of course one did, so I chose it.  As far as I can tell,
Launchpad then threw away all my uploaded crash report tracing info and
simply added my name to the "this affects me" count.

Now that I open up this bug, I see that it is "Incomplete" requiring a
"useful symbolic stack trace".  For all I know, my crash had one, but
Launchpad in its wisdom threw away my stack trace when it decided that
my crash was similar to this one.

Shouldn't Launchapd *always* upload the additional crash report info for
developers to look at, rather than throwing it away, especially for bugs
marked "Incomplete - need stack trace"?

I have the dump sitting here at home if you want me to do something with
it:
