** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: apport
+ SRU Justification
+
+ 1. impact of the bug is minimal for stable releases, since apport is
+ disabled by default. However, being able to run 'ubuntu-bug', 'apport-
+ bug' or 'apport-collect' is useful for developers trying to get more
+ information from users.
+
+ 2. This has been addressed in the development branch
+
+ 3. Patch is very small. See comment #3.
+
+ 4. TEST CASE:
+ $ sudo apport-bug apparmor --save /tmp/apport.txt
+
+ Examine /tmp/apport.txt. It should have something like:
+ ProcKernelCmdline: root=UUID=378db089-c0de-431c-b57d-9675fa5e6319 ro quiet
splash
+
+ 5. The regression potential of the patch is very low, as it updates the
+ apport hook which is not enabled by default in the stable releases.
+
+ Initial report
21:34 < kees> self['ProcCmdline'] = _read_file('/proc/' + pid +
'/cmdline').rstrip('\0')
21:34 < kees> vs
21:34 < kees> ./apport/hookutils.py: attach_file(report, '/proc/cmdline',
'ProcCmdLine')
The hardware hook is destroying the /proc/$pid/cmdline information.
