To be more explicit, I think the recent reports like mine, against 628104, *are* the new duplicates -- their equivalents, since the system intercepts them. (It's been my plan to mail Martin, to ask about this sort of thing, after release happens.) Since we can't open the bug we're sent to, bug 9

Thank you, Steve, that helps quite a bit. The 'client-side duping' I'm talking about is, I guess, a fairly recent arrival? http://www.piware.de/2011/11/apport-1-90-client-side-duplicate- checking/ "So with the just released Apport 1.90 we introduce client-side duplicate checking. So from now,

I have read up a little on bug patterns. Since apport and LP will match on tracebacks, and did so, here, that still seems significant, though there is no pattern written. (As I understand it.) No? Thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is

I can now reproduce this, and might rewrite the description, and even reopen the status. But I will wait a while to hear back in my last comment, before trying that. In brief, to reproduce it, quit update-manager from the Launcher quicklist, during a running upgrade. It may not happen 100% of at

Hi gentlemen - I still do not grok bug patterns enough; excuse me. For me and other recent reporters, it's the traceback which matches bug 628104, and is automatically duped to it. The client-side duping catches it; if you manually upload the crash, the server-side retracing catches it. You can

Hi Steve, thanks very much for responding. Your questions demonstrate that I do not yet know how apport and LP match duplicates, and more, and I may be using some terms poorly. > But how exactly did apport send you there? Apport popped up its window and asked me to file. I clicked 'Continue' on

Edward, The request was that people file new *crash* reports; i.e., to use the apport interface to report a new bug which would show us the crash. You write: > I myself cannot reproduce it. Which makes this bug report of dubious value. > A number of users have tried to report the crash through
