Package: general Severity: important debian should implement an automatic crash detection and reporting system like Fedora and Ubuntu teams have.If not mistaken, Fedora uses upstream of what ubuntu uses --apport.
There is no reason for debian to not have this feature.Yes, it is mostly a gui tool. Debian is used on both client workstations and servers. Tool should catch crashes as they happen and allow users to report them.It should auto-generate and allow people to auto generate debugging backtrace reports, installing gdb packages as needed.This would generate useful traces for developers in non-trivial way. Hint: corekeeper? ..but that is console based. Who uses a console these days? -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
