[Bug 36545] Re: Kubuntu Flight 5: Cannot backtrace in Crash Handler
I disagree with the above comment. It probably wouldn't have occurred to me to install gdb if the tab hadn't been displayed. Perhaps the tab should be greyed out, but that could be confusing too. -- Kubuntu Flight 5: Cannot backtrace in Crash Handler https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36545 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 36545] Re: Kubuntu Flight 5: Cannot backtrace in Crash Handler
Generally: If some functionality will not work unless some ressource is installed, then there should be no link (or similiar) to that functionality. More specificly: If gdb is not installed in the default installation, then the backtrace tab should not be displayed at all (as it wouldn't work anyway). -- Kubuntu Flight 5: Cannot backtrace in Crash Handler https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36545 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Quite, gdb *should* be part of the standard install, at least for alpha/beta releases. I'd have saved a fair amount of time in my testing of Flight 5 if gdb had been installed already (it wasn't a simple matter in my case to download it after the install from CD). -- Kubuntu Flight 5: Cannot backtrace in Crash Handler https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36545 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
