Fixed in trunk: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~apport- hackers/apport/trunk/revision/2992
Thanks Brian, nicely spotted! I tested this with the usual bash -c 'kill -SEGV $$' and StacktraceSource went from "useless" to "OMG real code!". ** Changed in: apport Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462491 Title: StacktraceSource contains errors instead of source code Status in Apport: Fix Released Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: The StacktraceSource information being added by apport-retrace contains Error messages see the attachment in bug 1459716. Here's part of it: #0 0xb7751be0 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0xb6813057 in __GI_raise (sig=6) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:55 [Error: ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c was not found in source tree] #2 0xb6814699 in __GI_abort () at abort.c:89 [Error: abort.c was not found in source tree] #3 0xb685119e in __libc_message (do_abort=1, fmt=0xb694b444 "*** Error in `%s': %s: 0x%s ***\n") at ../sysdeps/posix/libc_fatal.c:175 [Error: ../sysdeps/posix/libc_fatal.c was not found in source tree] I think part of the issue is that apport-retrace only ever searches the srcdir returned by get_source_tree (which is a temporary directory) and doesn't search the sandbox for the filename. Another problem is that find_file_dir is being passed a filename like "../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c" which won't be found even if that were in the srcdir.
