Thirdly, it breaks the existing behavior. So abrt maintainers, please
change this behavior. Don't break thinkgs by default. I think hardcoding
the logic to look into /var/crash/ for vmcores or creating a soft
link should work for you. Even if does not work for whatever reason,
please disable abrt-vmcore service by default. This is completely
unexpected change of behavior.


- "breaks the behavior" is a bit too hard, it doesn't break things. The
only think it could break is some app which expects the vmcores in the
kdump directory, but I don't know about such app in Fedora (maybe I just
wasn't looking hard enough)

Instead of apps looking for the vmcore, I guess it would mostly be people that can not find the new location of the vmcore. An app for full automatic vmcore analysis would surely be interesting, not sure something like that exists or is even remotely possible.

Sorry for the troubles, we will fix it with next update (either fix the
abrt vmcore plugin or disable the service if we wouldn't make it for F17)

That's much appreciated!!

Thanks,
Niels
