apport 0.24 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
apport (0.24) edgy; urgency=low The "Need for speed" release -- rrrroarrr! * apport: Remove _copy_shrink_corefile(): While this has an enormous impact on the size of an uncompressed core dump, it only causes a negligible size reduction of the bzip2'ed core, but it needs a lot of I/O resources for large core dumps. * problem_report.py: - Use zlib instead of bzip2 for compressing the binary data (in particular, core dumps). This results in slightly bigger files, but speeds up compression a lot (30 seconds vs. ~2:45 minutes for a Firefox core dump on my slow iBook). Closes: LP#61538 - ProblemReport.read(): Support both bzip2 and zlib compression to be able to read existing reports, too. - Add/Adapt test cases. * Move InformationCollector._get_gdb() from apport to apport_utils.py report_add_gdb_info(), and add a test case for it. * apport_utils.py, report_add_package_info(): Support calling without a package name, then it will be figured out from ExecutableName. Extend test case accordingly. * test-apport: Do not require apport reports to contain gdb, packaging, and OS information, since we are going to move them out of apport. * apport: Do not collect static information. It requires a lot of CPU and I/O resources and slows down the machine a lot, and it can be added to the report later in the frontend. This also gets rid of the entire InformationCollector class, since everything has been moved to apport_utils.py now. Closes: LP#62542 * apport: Do not intercept KeyboardInterrupt as unhandled exception (only useful for command line debugging, though). * problem_report.py: Add test case for appending new data to an existing report, fix write() function to not rely on an existing ProblemType key. * problem_report.py: Add new method ProblemReport.add_to_existing() to update an already existing problem report with new data. Add test case. * apport_utils.py, mark_report_seen(): Use os.utime() instead of open()/read() and a timeout for simpler and faster operation. * gtk/apport-gtk: - Collect gdb/packaging/operating system information when the user chooses to file a bug and update the apport report. - Change the 'Downloading bug patterns...' progress dialog to 'Collecting information about the crash...'. * debian/control: Bumped library dependencies of apport-gtk, added update-notifer dependency. -- Martin Pitt <email address hidden> Fri, 29 Sep 2006 15:47:56 +0200
