Fixed in git.

Comment 2 Mohammed Arafa 2010-02-06 04:57:45 UTC
hi
would it also be too much trouble to log the username as well?

currently it shows
Feb  6 06:42:31 thispc abrtd: New crash, saving

it would be more informational if it was:

Feb  6 06:42:31 thispc abrtd: marafa - New crash, saving

or something similar
