Qa should run backtraces for the dev team. The dev team can focus on
implementing the fixes. We should not ask end users to perform the traces.
If they are comfortable with doing it . Then this is great. As I was told
the wiki is for contributors and not end users.

Well - not -entirely- true, some backtrace is better than nothing at
all, but to have much hope of going wrong we need a symbols trace - yes.
Why is that ?

It always seems to me to be such a pointless exercise running gdb as
a QA member against daily builds that have no symbols.

Main (all?) Linux distributions provide the LO symbols package so you don't

The best solution would be to have a debug symbol server, then there
would be easily accessible debug symbols even for the release builds.

May I humbly note that I personally feel that developers should be

Just some thoughts here.
First backtrace are very useful only if they contain symbols.
It's more difficult to retrieve bt on Windows than on Linux (I don't know
how MacOs could be compared with them)
It seems no daily builds contain symbols or missed it
(http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/).
Hi All,
Came across this bug FDO#45570 and I've already nominated as a most
annoying bug but I think that devs might appreciate me getting some kind of

I don't see that helping much, as the developer who takes this one can
quickly do this themselves. A working doc only takes 2 seconds to make.
