[Bug 1360417] Re: thread_collect_info can leave out information in .crash files

 

Hello Brian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apport into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/2.14.1-0ubuntu3.4 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!

Title:
  thread_collect_info can leave out information in .crash files

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “apport” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I noticed there were some crash reports in the Ubuntu Error Tracker
  with incomplete information in them (bug 1355546) and ended up
  creating a test case that recreates one way the problem can occur.

  1) in a terminal run 'sudo chmod 600 /etc/apt/sources.list'
  2) run 'update-manager'
  3) observe a crash and click "Leave Closed" on the crash notification dialog
  4) confirm that there is in /var/crash/ a .upload and .uploaded file for the update-manager crash

  If you inspect the update-manager crash file you'll notice it is
  missing Dependencies and DistroRelease so the additional apport data
  collection was never done.  Additionally, some information from "Show
  Details" of apport dialog does not appear in the report.

  UnreportableReason: E: Opening /etc/apt/sources.list...
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04
