Bug Description
- Regarding XUbuntu 19.04
- apport version: 2.20.10-0ubuntu27.1
Current behaviour:
==================
Core dumps of custom software (e.g. self-created software) are not created by default.
(It says "core dumped", but actually nothing was created. This is a bug, but not of matter now)
To create coredumps within `/var/crash/`, one has to
- Create `~/.config/
[main]
unpackaged=true
- set ulimit -c unlimited
Suggested behaviour:
=======
Setup apport (? or whatever package is in charge) to
- create core dumps of custom software
- inside the current working directory
- by default
Alternative Suggested behaviour:
=======
Setup apport (? or whatever package is in charge) to
- create core dumps of custom software
- inside the current working directory
- after setting `ulimit -c unlimited`
affects: | xubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) → apport (Ubuntu) |
edit @ Current behaviour:
Core dumps are not created in `/var/crash`. Crash files are created there. They must be further processed to gain the real coredump.
