Could be related to [bug 963525]. (In reply to Jan Pokorný from comment #1) Thank you for your efforts in solving this bug. This odd behaviour is due to pre rpm scriptlet copying old problems to the current dump location. The old problems were stored in /var/spool/abrt (you can safely delete them all if you wish, because all of these problems should be copied to the current dump location). The current dump location is /var/tmp/abrt I thought about checking mtime of the problem directory or its DIR/time element's value and not show the bubble if it is old enough, but I'm not sure it makes sense. Generally, such a solution would be hiding symptoms instead of fixing the reaosns why this happens. For one, it will stop notification about the old-ish problem directories delivered via abrt-handle-upload. I propose WONTFIX for this bug. (In reply to Denys Vlasenko from comment #3) > I thought about checking mtime of the problem directory or its DIR/time > element's value and not show the bubble if it is old enough, but I'm not > sure it makes sense. You are right but abrt-applet checks DIR/time at start time but the upgrade was performed while abrt-applet was already running. The root cause of this bug is implemenetation of the pre scriptlet because it doesn't stop abrtd.service thus abrtd detects the copied directories as new problems. We can safely remove the scriptlet from the spec file. It was required for upgrade from version 2.0 to version 2.1 Since apparently no one objects, closing as WONTFIX. Please reopen if needed. (In reply to Denys Vlasenko from comment #5) > Since apparently no one objects, closing as WONTFIX. Please reopen if needed. I had an objection. The rpm scriptlet causing this is not necessary anymore.

The rpm scriptlet causing this is not necessary anymore. The rpm scriptlet has been removed now. This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
