Public bug reported:
[ Impact ]
A lot of users are bother by the number of whoopsie dialog. We introduced on
"G-C-C privacy option don't allow sending manual report" bug
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1774597) a
way for users to change from always reporting manually (prompting an UI) to
auto reporting or never reporting, via a "Remember this in future".
This only impacts the apport gtk UI, still offering the underlying
capability to other UIs type without changing them.
This was a goal for 18.04, but due to a lack of time, we want to
introduce this in 18.04.1
[ Test Case ]
* There are multiples dialog forms (a good 20 of them), but they are all
covered by unit tests which have been updates. One use case would be:
* Install the new version and trigger a crash
* Check that the dialog has a "Remember this in future" option, check it, and
click send.
* Check in g-c-c UI, privacy option, that the crash reporting is now in auto
mode, always send.
* Revert in g-c-c to manual
* Create another crash, check "Remember this…" and click don't send
* Check in g-c-c UI that crash reporting is now disabled.
[ Regression potential ]
* The impacted code is both UI and fileutils. It's covered by an extensive
testsuite, and checking under KDE has also been done to not trigger a crash.
