Xorg crashed with SIGABRT

[corrado venturini]

I ran apt-get update + upgrade on an Ubuntu 17.04 installed from an old daily Ubuntu 17.04 "Zesty Zapus" - Alpha amd64 (20161106) and never updated. After restart i had tis problem. Ubuntu started in low graphic mode and i was forced to start in emergency mode an do again apt-get update + upgrade + dist-upgrade.
afrer last restart i found this error. Now all seems ok.

Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate a useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:

no debug symbol package found for debianutils
no debug symbol package found for perl-base
no debug symbol package found for debianutils
no debug symbol package found for perl-base

Please upgrade your system to the latest package versions. If you still
encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!

You probably had some boot issue and chose recovery boot, because the old xorg log shows you had 'nomodeset' kernel parameter set. This will mess up trying to load unity I'm pretty sure. Anyway, this bug is closed.
