this has also some downsides. The breakpad thing is nice for companies and projects that do provide ready to use binary packages no matter for Windows, Linux or MacOS platforms, just because they already know addresses from the used symbols and functions from the generated binaries. The backtraces are small and quite really anonymous and will mostly just hold signatures and hashes. But for all packages from the various Linux distributions you would need to know some internals from the build of the binaries and the packages later. You would also need a possibilities where the package creater could upload all these data plus a framework as a helper for doing this all. I've tried to get this all together for the Thunderbird package in Debian but due the complexity and the amount of work I haven't finished anything since almost two years. Not that the breakpad package is bad thing, no it's not! And I haven't looked into any implementation details from Tom. But for now I wouldn't hardly focus on this. And there wont be the one and only solution in the end I guess. But you need to start somewhere. -- Regards Carsten Schoenert _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
