Thank you for your reports. Does someone still have a report in /var/crash which reproduces this apport crash? (You can click on it in nautilus). If so, please attach the original report here, so that I can reproduce the apport crash.

[Bruno Amaral (mail-brunoamaral)]

Right now my /var/cash doesn't contain any reports that ubuntu should
support. Sorry.

Afraid not no.

[cfd (computer411)]

No, sorry. I ended up reformatting my computer and doing a fresh install of
Gutsy which got rid of the issue. This isue came about, when I had upgraded
from Feisty to Gutsy beta. The problem is fixed on my end.

Cameron, did you try to send an attachment via email? That does not work, sorry. Please attach it on the web interface.

tkrisz: sorry, that was the wrong file. You attached the crash report for *this* bug (i. e. apport-gtk crashing while it tried to report a crash). I need the original crash report which apport crashed on.

Thank you!

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Cameron: thanks, but same problem: you need to attach the original crash report, on whose reporting apport crashed (e. g. you have crash reports for evolution, mythtv, emacs, and a few others). *Not* the crash report for apport itself.

I have more data. Because I change the PC. But it was the owner of the
Nvidia drivers. Who made gèles screen with 3D acceleration.

[tkrisz (tkrisz)]

This is my crash folder, do you need something from this?
The first problem report at the upgrade to Gutsy i think was something with texlive. Probably because i had both texlive and tetex. After that i got rid of tetex.
Now, everything seems to be working, except for some pidgin issues.

tkrisz; it must be some report which belongs to root, which means it can only be any of the tex reports. Can you please do

  sudo tar /var/crash/te*.0.crash | gzip -9 > /tmp/reports.tar.gz

(i. e. create an archive of all tetex/texlive crash reports) and attach /tmp/reports.tar.gz here?

tkrisz, sorry, it seems I gave you a wrong command. This is right:

  sudo tar cv /var/crash/te*.0.crash | gzip -9 > /tmp/reports.tar.gz

I am sorry for my misunderstanding and thanks for your patience!

Rijkhart, this is the same problem: you gave me the crash report for apport, not the report for the crash that made apport crash. But it seems that tkrisz has the files.

I have more information that you ask me because I changed my PC. But my
problem was related to proprietary drivers Nvidia.

I've found out it was wrong. But is the compress good? Or should i remake it with your line?

No, the compressed archive you uploaded only had a directory listing,
so I am afraid you have to do it again with my second command. Thank
you!

[tkrisz (tkrisz)]

Next try.

tkrisz: splendid, thank you! I'll look at it.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

tkrisz: Hm, darn. It seems that my previous wrong tar command overwrote tetex-extra.0.crash to become a tar archive of all other crash reports, so the original crash report is lost. I cannot reproduce the crash with any of the other reports.

On the other hand it is quite unlikely that the apport crash happened on a "package failed to install" report since those do not have any gzip'ed data. I guess I just need to let this bug sit around until someone trips over it again and files another duplicate.

Trollforge,

sorry, no, that's again the crash of apport itself while it tried to report the first crash. I need

  /var/crash/update-manager.0.crash
  /var/crash/_usr_bin_update-manager.1000.crash

Note that you cannot read the first file as your user, so please do this first:

  sudo chown 1000:1000 /var/crash/update-manager.0.crash

then please attach above two files here. Thank you!

[Trollforge (trollforge)]

Sorry Martin,

  /var/crash/update-manager.0.crash

Even though I had poked around the edges of Linux over the past 4 years, I
am still very much a "newbie" when it comes to this OS. It is interesting
and gives me a sense of comfort, to see the efforts made to resolve a bug in
the system. Interestingly enough, I have had no problems since the initial
event. The only issues I have are because of the hardware I am runnig this
on. The system is based on a VIA "Nehemiah" M10000 precessor on a mini-ITX
board. So there are some pieces of software that are just too much for it.

Trollforge, thank you! That's what I needed, I can reproduce the bug now.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Fixed in bzr head.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 0.102

---------------
apport (0.102) hardy; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * problem_report.py: Support reading reports with legacy zlib
    compression in 'retain compressed values' mode (as used nowadays by
    apport when reporting a crash). Add a test case, too. (LP: #129616)
  * debian/control, debian/rules: Switch from python-support to
    python-central, and use 'nomove' option so that apport works during
    upgrades, too. (LP: #121341)
  * debian/rules: Use dh_icons instead of dh_iconcache.
  * debian/apport.init: Do not stop apport in any runlevel (LSB header).
  * apport/ui.py, run_crash(): Catch zlib.error on invalidly compressed core
    dumps. (LP: #176977)
  * apport/ui.py: Give a meaningful error message instead of crashing if the
    package for a crash report is not installed any more. (LP: #149739)
  * apport/ui.py: Do not include ProcCmdline in bug reports, since these are
    not ack'ed by the user and might contain sensitive data. (LP: #132800)
  * apport/ui.py: Add various test cases for crash reports whose packages have
    been uninstalled between the crash and the report. This reproduces
    LP #186684.
  * apport/ui.py, load_report(): Produce proper error message if
    executable/interpreter path do not exist any more. (LP: #186684)
  * cli/apport-cli: Intercept SIGPIPE when calling sensible-pager, to avoid
    crash when quitting it prematurely. (LP: #153872)
  * bin/apport-checkreports: Print out a list of program names/packages which
    have a pending crash report. (LP: #145117)
  * apport/ui.py, run_argv(): Add return code which indicates whether any
    report has been processed.
  * cli/apport-cli: If no pending crash reports are present, say so and refer
    to --help. (LP: #182985)
  * apport/ui.py: Waive check for obsolete packages if environment defines
    $APPORT_IGNORE_OBSOLETE_PACKAGES. Document this in the apport-cli manpage.
    (LP: #148064)

  [ Daniel Hahler ]
  * .crash file integration for KDE3 (LP: #177055)
    - debian/apport-qt.install: install added files qt4/apport-qt-mime.desktop
      and qt4/apport-qt-mimelnk.desktop
  * Fixed minor warnings/errors from desktop-file-validate in
    gtk/apport-gtk-mime.desktop.in and qt4/apport-qt.desktop.in (LP: #146957)
