** Changed in: whoopsie (Ubuntu Trusty)
     Assignee: (unassigned) => Brian Murray (brian-murray)

** Description changed:

  The package hook for update-manager and aptdaemon add information like
  /var/log/apt/term.log and /var/log/apt/history.log that would be useful
  in debugging crashes from those applications.  However, those files can
  be larger than 1 KB so whoopsie does not send them to the Error Tracker.
  We should be sending those fields along.
+ 
+ Test Case
+ ---------
+ 1) launch update-manager
+ 2) kill -11 the update-manager process
+ 3) locate the update-manager .crash file and observe DpkgHistoryLog.txt in it
+ 4) send crash report to Error Tracker (look for .uploaded file)
+ 5) view crash report in Error Tracker (find OOPS ID by looking at syslog / 
whoopsie status)
+ 6) observe DpkgHistoryLog.txt not in it
+ 
+ With the version of the package from -proposed DpkgHistoryLog.txt should
+ appear on the OOPS page for the crash that was sent.
