Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apport
I reported a crash in Synaptic yesterday: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/355415 Now, the "Apport retrace service" invalidated this bug because I don't have scrollkeeper installed. But scrollkeeper is deprecated and replaced by rarian-compat (which is a dependency of ubuntu-desktop and conflicts with scrollkeeper). Also, Synaptic installs & works just fine *without* scrollkeeper (which is only used for the documentation, I suppose). Seems like something is wrong with the retrace service, and I wonder how many legitimate crasher bugs have been invalidated because of this already? I really hope not too many other packages are impacted, and I think it might be useful to have a look at the invalidated bugs reported against those packages... (This bug is also reported on the ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list, because I think looking at invalidated crash reports might be needed to make sure everything in Jaunty is stable, and we don't have a lot of time left!) ** Affects: apport (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Binary package hint: apport I reported a crash in Synaptic yesterday: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/355415 Now, the "Apport retrace service" invalidated this bug because I don't have scrollkeeper installed.
