[Touch-packages] [Bug 1780985] Re: apport-unpack crashed with ValueError in extract_keys(): ['ProcEnviron'] has no binary content
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1889443 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1889443 Hi Tom, thanks you for the report. This bug is a(nother) duplicate of bug #1889443 which is fixed in Ubuntu >= 22.04 (jammy). The fix is being backported to Ubuntu 20.04 and I also plan to backport it to 18.04. Apport did not get much attention in the last years (probably mostly due to a lack of manpower), but I started working on it several month ago. I tried to address the top occurring bugs (see https://github.com/canonical/apport/blob/main/NEWS.md how many bugs were fixed). Please report any remaining bugs with Apport that you find. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1889443 "ValueError: ['separator'] has no binary content" when running `apport-unpack /var/crash/...` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1780985 Title: apport-unpack crashed with ValueError in extract_keys(): ['ProcEnviron'] has no binary content Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Sometimes apport creates a crash file with an empty field for 'ProcEnviron'.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1780985] Re: apport-unpack crashed with ValueError in extract_keys(): ['ProcEnviron'] has no binary content
$ apport-unpack _usr_bin_gjs-console.1000.crash Guest79 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/apport-unpack", line 74, in pr.extract_keys(f, bin_keys, dir) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/problem_report.py", line 270, in extract_keys [item for item, element in b64_block.items() if element is False]) ValueError: ['separator'] has no binary content ... is what brought me here. This is the kind of bug I do not understand why it does not get higher priority. It is a - seemingly easy to fix - bug in a core Ubuntu utility, which is relevant for bug reporting and analysis, thus a tool with a potential to improve the distributions' quality on a relevant scale. It would seem like it should be of central interest to Canonical that these tools receive much development attention and are of high quality. To the contrary, apport is in a sad state (see its bug tracker), and has been for a decade, and unless it gets serious quality time, it seems wrong to continue to waste massive (scale) CPU cycles and prompt users about (not) reporting crashes and bugs at all. Sorry for using this bug tracker as a means of providing generic software quality feedback - I know I should not, but I also know other places would not get developer attention, or feedback would be treated more in a PR (and I do not mean pull request) way, while here, there is at least a bit of a chance for quality feedback. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1780985 Title: apport-unpack crashed with ValueError in extract_keys(): ['ProcEnviron'] has no binary content Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Sometimes apport creates a crash file with an empty field for 'ProcEnviron'.
