Bug description:
  Binary package hint: crash

  Crash seems to depend on the program "strings" (in binutils package)
  to match vmcore dumps to vmlinux kernels. If you try to run crash
  without binutils installed, it will fail saying the vmlinux image and
  dump do not match (along with an error further up reporting that
  "strings" is not found).

  Crash should have binutils package added to its deps.
