This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping There is an option in /etc/abrt/plugins/CCpp.conf: MakeCompatCore = no which (if enabled) makes ABRT to create the coredump in the cwd of the crashed program, the core file is then called core.<pid> I hope, this will fix this issue. Jirka Note that it looks like kernel does not respect ulimit setting in this case (when there is a user-specified coredump handler): even if ulimit -c is 0, the handler is still called. Worse still, looks like handler has no way to know that ulimit -c was 0, so it cannot mimic correct behavior. IOW: with MakeCompatCore = yes, coredump will be created even if ulimit -c is 0, which is quite typical. That's why the default is "MakeCompatCore = no" and why "MakeCompatCore = yes" can't be recommended as typical setting. User needs to know what he is doing by setting it to "yes". Thanks for the analysis. As I do not understand it more there should exist a Component=kernel Bug for it, shouldn't it? Either reassigned this one or a new one this will depend on. Related bug: 541705 Thankfully, no. There is a %c specifier for this, yay!

I added %c usage to abrt git and run tested. Works!
