Title: apport-collect SHOULD NOT collect gnome-shell command history and favorites Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in apport source package in Bionic: Confirmed Bug description: In https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1739525/comments/4, I ran apport-collect for that bug report. To my horror, it posted "org.gnome.shell command-history" and "favorites" in the "GsettingsChanges.txt"! https://launchpadlibrarian.net/349970997/GsettingsChanges.txt It's _completely_ reasonable to see: * enabled-extensions * org.gnome.shell.* diffs * org.gnome.desktop.* diffs But it is _NOT_ acceptable (privacy reasons) to automatically harvest a user's favorites in the gnome-shell, nor their command histories. _IF_ we must harvest for bug-data gathering, it MUST come in a secure mechanism that is private only to submitter + the assigned dev.
