It depends on the project. Some projects do not want to receive reports about problems with distribution's packages. They would ask the reporter to build from scratch and try to reproduce with the latest release or snapshot. > Really?

Assuming it's a detailed/complete backtrace accompanied with steps on how to reproduce something, well, I would think the same. Unfortunately, users still dump ABRT backtraces into Fedora bugzilla without adding a single comment and without replying to questions. Upstream would also prefer bug reporters to be responsive. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
