I still fail to understand what went wrong there. /var/crash has correct permission to write to. In case of permission errors, the error should say PermissionError (errno 13 IIRC), but the failure message says "Read- only file system".
Can you paste the content of /proc/mounts? What happens if you try to create a file in /var/crash? E.g. run touch /var/crash/testcase.crash I would expect that to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1953720 Title: OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/var/crash/...
