Title:
whoopsie can't remember "always report" setting
Status in whoopsie-preferences package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
After ticking the checkbox for whoopsie to automatically always send
crash reports, I get the following error dialog (screenshot attached):
*Can't remember send report status settings*
Saving crash report state failed. Can't set auto or never reporting mode.
Command '['/usr/bin/gdbus', 'call', '-y', '-d',
'com.ubuntu.WhoopsiePreferences', '-o', '/com/ubuntu/WhoopsiePreferences',
'-m', 'com.ubuntu.WhoopsiePreferences.SetReportCrashes', 'true']' returned
non-zero exit status 1.
I'm pretty sure this error happens because whoopsie-preferences was not
installed; afterwards I installed whoopsie-preferences and manually ran in a
terminal:
$ /usr/bin/gdbus call -y -d com.ubuntu.WhoopsiePreferences -o
/com/ubuntu/WhoopsiePreferences -m
com.ubuntu.WhoopsiePreferences.SetReportCrashes true
and got a return value of () but no errors or warnings.
This computer was freshly-installed with Xubuntu 18.04 less than 2
weeks ago... I've kept a record of everything I changed since then,
and I've only removed five packages (sgt-puzzles, gnome-sudoku, gnome-
mines, pidgin, mousepad). If whoopsie-preferences is not included in
a fresh install of (X)ubuntu, then perhaps it should be; in any case,
if it isn't installed then the checkbox for making crash reporting
automatic should not be visible.
