[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1746874] Re: gnome-shell and Xwayland sometimes leave $HOME/core files (should be /var/crash files)
In case it's not clear to all readers yet; Xwayland and gnome-shell are co-dependent processes. If one crashes then the other will also crash. So we need apport to be capable of handling both crashes simultaneously. ** No longer affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: linux (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: mutter (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746874 Title: gnome-shell and Xwayland sometimes leave $HOME/core files (should be /var/crash files) Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: gnome-shell and Xwayland sometimes leave $HOME/core files (should be /var/crash files).

You could try passing a core file to apport when there is not a graphical shell running via a command like the following: /usr/share/apport/apport < $my-pretend.core With that you should get a .crash file in /var/crash.

This might be an apport bug alone. Historically apport has had trouble working without a graphical shell.
