If MaxCrashReportsSize is not reached and crashes are still deleted it is probably a bug. What OS (distro and version) are you using? > Two probably unrelated questions: > 1.

If you install packages manually from koji, package are not signed and you have to set 'OpenGPGCheck' option to 'yes' in /etc/abrt/abrt-action-save-package-data.conf to catch such a crashes. > Because of abrt deleting my crashes, I get these a lot: "ignoring (repeated > crash)". How can I reset abrt's behavior about crashes it has seen before? Removing /var/spool/abrt/last-ccpp file should help.
