You have been subscribed to a public bug: If apport "ignores" a signal and doesn't create a report in /var/crash, it still creates a core file in the current directory if the user has set the ulimit/rlimit size for core files to greater than the default of 0. However, it doesn't do this for SIGQUIT.
The attached patch fixes this. It also fixes a bug where the core limit was erroneously being multiplied by 1024 (the limit passed to write_user_coredump() is in bytes, not KB). ** Affects: apport (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Core file not created on SIGQUIT https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153662 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
