Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Format of emails sent by *ABRT* is now configurable
You can now configure the format of emails sent by *ABRT* using the new "-F FORMAT_FILE" command-line option of the *reporter-mailx* utility. This option allows you to define your own format.
Without the "-F" option, *reporter-mailx* uses the default format, which sorts all important elements by importance.
For more information about the format of formatting files, see the *reporter-mailx(1)* man page.
Description of problem:
In abrt emails single line files precede multi-line files and multi-line files are displayed in alphabetical order. So contents of reporter_to are shown towards the end of the email report. If the backtrace is too long, this leads to scrolling all the way to the end of the email. The work around for this, is to rename files like reported_to to a name starting with "a".
I'm renaming it to abrt-faf-report to make it list before backtrace. If possible we should be able to configure the format to provide desired information in the first few lines of the email.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-2.1.11-34.el7.x86_64
