I found mention of the policy behind disabling apport reporting from update-notifier today. It seems it is a deliberate decision because data-center infrastructure isn't ready to deal usefully with the expected volume of apport attachments.
See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- devel/2007-April/023526.html I'm therefore withdrawing the patch but those that want to manually report crashes can do: $ /usr/share/apport/apport-gtk or if you want to enable the automatic handling: $ gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/update- notifier/show_apport_crashes true ** Attachment removed: "Enable show_apport_crashes" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10174867/update-notifier.debdiff ** Changed in: update-notifier (Ubuntu) Assignee: TJ (intuitivenipple) => (unassigned) Status: In Progress => Won't Fix ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- apport stopped working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137406 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
