Bug Description
Binary package hint: apport
If a prior crash report exists for a program, apport will not write core files to disk:
$ ulimit -c unlimited
$ sleep 120 &
[1] 15116
$ kill -SEGV %1
$
[1]+ Segmentation fault (core dumped) sleep 120
$ ls
$ sudo mv /var/crash/
$ sleep 120 &
[1] 15168
$ kill -SEGV %1
$
[1]+ Segmentation fault (core dumped) sleep 120
$ ls
core
$
