Comment 6 for bug 137406

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
