Comment 2 Christoph Wickert 2010-04-14 07:31:02 UTC
Sorry, The backtrace is completely useless, I just wanted this as an example of something that abrt should not allow a user to post. Reassigning to abrt.

BTW: I wonder why abrt downloaded rhythmbox-debuginfo when the crash was in firefox.

ABRT used the backtrace rating algorithm from Dr.Konqui which can't handle some corner cases, so it has been completely rewritten in 1.0.9 to avoid these problems

ABRT get's all build-ids of all loaded libraries from the coredump and then downloads the respective packages, so I guess firefox was using something from rythmbox in the time of the crash...
