It happens quite often that I cannot report crashes with ABRT. I have the impression that these crashes are often related to Wayland or nouveau. I will report these crashes as comments to this bug. The first one is: https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/reports/1851071/ also reported as bug 1532002.
I also tried reporting the crash via the CLI: (I also manually did: debuginfo-install deja-dup-37.0-1.fc27) report-cli -v /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2018-01-07-11:22:13.301422-9167 uReport has been already sent: '/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2018-01-07-11:22:13.301422-9167' Bug for '/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2018-01-07-11:22:13.301422-9167' not yet filed.

The same bug happen in several of my machines. (Just as Jan Vlug in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1531472#c2) It appears with several software, from the graphical invocation as well from the cli. The result is invariably : [...] no backtrace usable [...] Here is a sample when I tried to launched supertux-kart Note of some interest : it as started to happen only with the last updates of FC27 I do not know what is implied there, and i feel sorry to miss time to dig in it myself So here is going a *bog* thank you to whom is going to do it. IMHO it is not a simple bug. I would hate to see *normal* users stepping back from O.S. if the problem persist and start to happen with LibreOffice and some more day by day essentials Having a **working** return of information about bug is, again, IMHO, crucial. Since "bug return" is not working, I do think very probable we are missing a lot of others feed back.

I slowly got the debuginfos installed. abrt failed the same as other reports. I tried report-cli which failed due to debuginfo files failing to install. So with a little goggling I found that debuginfo-install was not installed but that was not the issue with report-cli. I then find there is a tool called coredumputil which will help process a coredump and get all the debuginfo files. Oh goodie. Fedora Magazine https://fedoramagazine.org/file-better-bugs-coredumpctl/ has instructions. These types of instructions HELP us HELP developers. :) Once I'd gotten this done then report-cli worked.
