Description George R. Goffe 2011-02-08 11:35:02 UTC
Description of problem:

I'm running a ktorrent-4.1beta1 version of ktorrent for an earlier reported crash. A different crash appears and Drkonqi is invoked (see bug filed:
[Bug 265787] New: While trying to report a ktorrent bug, Drkonqi refuses to generate a report" on bugs.kde.org. Earlier attempts at filing this bug resulted in a recommendation that I contact "my" distributions creator. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=265493.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

KDE-4.5.5

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start ktorrent-4.1beta1
2.Wait for crash which invokes Drkonqi (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=265787 for more details
3.
  
Actual results:

An apparent attempt to install debuginfo files which may be failing. Drconqi starts a konsole which appears to be running yum install... This apparently fails for some reason but the konsole disappears before any debug info can be gathered. Drkonqi returns to the loop which claims "backtrace is useless" which AGAIN prompts the user to install "debug symbols".

Expected results:

Drkonqi should have more elaborate debug capabilities. Leave the failed konsole "up" so that debug info can be gathered.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 13:12:16 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached 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 to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

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.

The process we are following is described here:
