When yum upgrading from F15 to F16, abrt core reporting works fine before the upgrade and stops working afterward. User needs to us "systemctl enable abrt-ccpp.service" and "systemctl start abrt-ccpp.service" (or reboot) to get it to start working again.
Changing summary because adamw says this occurs on any F15 -> F16 upgrade, not just when upgrading via yum. This probably makes it a somewhat higher priority bug to fix? Maybe even a blocker?
(In reply to comment #1) > This probably makes it a somewhat higher priority bug to fix? +1. This is broken for preupgrade users (and probably DVD), too. I had to manually enable and start the abrt-ccpp service. $ rpm -q abrt abrt-2.0.6-1.fc16.x86_64

I'm running with abrt-2.0.7-2.fc16.x86_64, but that didn't help in my case (see bug 767001). Running `systemctl enable abrt-ccpp.service' does the trick, but I'd expect abrt install to do that for me.
