As long as Fedora exists, I have been discouraging maintainers to use CLOSED UPSTREAM. because it's a bold lie, which is only useful to violently play down the number of bugs Fedora suffers from.

Combined with the fact, abrt now "silently exits 0" once a bug was CLOSDED UPSTREAM, I am considering maintainers closing bugs "CLOSED UPSTREAM" to be doing so deliberately in hostile intentions.

Correct. These segfaults happen in the background, without any any immediate interaction attached and without abrt not providing any helpful information to reproduce them.

At minimum, I am expecting maintainers to keep bugs open as long as they affect Fedora - What you are doing is cheating!

You mean to
"rm /usr/lib*/tumbler-1/plugins/tumbler-gst-thumbnailer.so"?

Certainly this stops the segfaults, ... because it's stops all thumbnailing.
