Description Mike Khusid 2011-12-07 17:50:24 UTC 
abrt created a report directory /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-blah with user abrt and group mkhusid, and with permissions 750. As a result, a user can't write to the report directory. It is an annoyance and it doesn't seem to make much sense to me.
Could you please change the default permission to 770?
Comment 1 Christopher Beland 2011-12-27 19:04:30 UTC 
I can confirm this with abrt-2.0.7-2.fc16.x86_64.

To reproduce, I believe you need to select the option for creating the backtrace with a local debugger.  (That's the path I always take.)
Comment 2 Jiri Moskovcak 2012-01-03 12:59:39 UTC 
This is not a bug, we don't want an user writeable directory in /var/spool/. You cant just copy it somewhere else.
