[Desktop-packages] [Bug 962479] Re: Crash report cannot be processed due to outdated debug packages on daily-live
It's not an Apport bug, so closing. Daily CDs grow old quickly, during the development release you have to upgrade to the latest packages every day if you want to be able to submit crash reports, I'm afraid. ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962479 Title: Crash report cannot be processed due to outdated debug packages on daily-live Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Debug symbol packages are outdated on latest Live CD 22/03/12 - apport cannot generated useful stack trace.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 962479] Re: Crash report cannot be processed due to outdated debug packages on daily-live
Hi Martin, Wait -- this situation makes no sense. Look at the debug symbol packages it's complaining about: they're not old by 1 version, but instead really old. Since the dbgsyms are on your side, how can upgrading to the latest binary packages impact the dbgsym archive?? For example, here's what apport retracing had to say regarding bug # 973450: Thank you for your report! However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the developers failed (it does not generate a useful symbolic stack trace). This might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system at the time of the report: outdated debug symbol package for dmidecode: package version 2.11-4 dbgsym version 2.9-1.2build1 outdated debug symbol package for cryptsetup: package version 2:1.4.1-2ubuntu2 dbgsym version 2:1.1.3-4ubuntu2 Look carefully; dmidecode is still at 2.11-4 !! ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962479 Title: Crash report cannot be processed due to outdated debug packages on daily-live Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Debug symbol packages are outdated on latest Live CD 22/03/12 - apport cannot generated useful stack trace.

After debugging the original problem myself, it turns out the the apport retracing message is just a red herring. The inability to get a stack backtrace for the original bug has nothing to do with outdated debug symbol packages. It's because parted_server (a binary from the ubiquity package) does not have debug symbols or a debug symbol package. ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962479 Title: Crash report cannot be processed due to outdated debug packages on daily-live Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Debug symbol packages are outdated on latest Live CD 22/03/12 - apport cannot generated useful stack trace.

dbgsym packages aren't actually shipped on the live CD at all - they're fetched from the archive. Reassigning one of the tasks to apport in case this is something Martin can figure out, since it does look a bit odd that they're *older* than the packages on the live CD. ** Package changed: ubiquity (Ubuntu) = apport (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: cryptsetup Status: New = Invalid ** Project changed: cryptsetup = cryptsetup (Ubuntu) ** Project changed: dmidecode = dmidecode (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: cryptsetup (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: dmidecode (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962479 Title: Crash report cannot be processed due to outdated debug packages on daily-live Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Debug symbol packages are outdated on latest Live CD 22/03/12 - apport cannot generated useful stack trace.
