Hello Mauricio, or anyone else affected,

Accepted crash into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/crash/7.0.3-3ubuntu3 in
a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

+ SRU Justification:

+ Regression Potential: This only affects ppc64el architectures, and is currently in utopic.

  Hi,
  
  Is it possible to (discuss how to) enable the crash package to on the
  ppc64el arch?
  
  Recently the kernel received the config changes
  (CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y, CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, currently in the -proposed pocket [1])
  
  Is it hard to move to GDB 7.7? (ppc64el GDB package starts on that
  version).
  
  Thanks!
