Description Stuart D Gathman 2012-09-12 22:52:03 UTC

Description of problem:
abrt tries retrace server without asking when reporting a crash

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-2.0.12-1.fc17.i686

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. crash an app (sig 11 if they aren't already crashing on you)
2. attempt to report with abrt
3.
  
Actual results:
Immediately starts process of sending to retrace server 

Expected results:
Gives option of local gdb or retrace server or manually generated backtrace

Additional info:
If I let it go ahead with the retrace server, it still doesn't work.  It says "initializing root fs" over and over again.

When I stop the retrace process, the crash is moved to the Reported list. If I select it from the Reported list, and open the report (instead of clicking report), then I can move a radio button to Local GNU Debugger.  When I do so, it starts downloading and extracting debuginfos - but after a minute or so, the log window suddenly expands its width to wider than the screen, and gnome-shell crashes.  (This is like the third time I've started this report.)

Thank you for filling this bug report. If you want to help us, please go through the following points.

1. Are you sure that you haven't left the "Don't ask me again" checkbox checked at first time when a dialog with message "Event 'Retrace Server' requires permission to send possibly sensitive data. Do you want to continue?" was shown?

You can easily checkit with the following command:

grep ask_send_sensitive_data ~/.config/abrt/settings/report-gtk.conf

The line 'ask_send_sensitive_data = "no"' means that the checkbox was left checked.


2. If you have never seen the dialog window from the first question, a configuration file of the event is probably broken. 

Please, run the following comamnd:

grep sending-sensitive-data /etc/libreport/events/analyze_RetraceServer.xml

and with the correct configuration you have to see the following line:

<sending-sensitive-data>yes</sending-sensitive-data>
