So vinaigre crashed (Ubuntu 11.04) and sent me through the bug reporting process, collecting 50MB of reporting information and uploading it all.
Here in Launchpad, I was offered two similar crashes and asked if either matched mine. Of course one did, so I chose it. As far as I can tell, Launchpad then threw away all my uploaded crash report tracing info and simply added my name to the "this affects me" count. Now that I open up this bug, I see that it is "Incomplete" requiring a "useful symbolic stack trace". For all I know, my crash had one, but Launchpad in its wisdom threw away my stack trace when it decided that my crash was similar to this one. Shouldn't Launchapd *always* upload the additional crash report info for developers to look at, rather than throwing it away, especially for bugs marked "Incomplete - need stack trace"? I have the dump sitting here at home if you want me to do something with it: 1999926 Oct 27 13:10 _usr_bin_vinagre.777.crash -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to vinagre in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/855967 Title: vinagre crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast() Status in “vinagre” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Trying to connect VNC to a Mac Machine from a liveCD of ubuntu 11.04.
