tag bugs from Netbook Remix installs

In fact the netbook guys wanted to have their bugs reported against an entirely separate project, see bug 338835. I recently added the necessary infrastructure to apport. Now you just need to ship an apport crashdb configuration file, see the bug above for details.

Therefore I reassing this to the UNR guys.

The solution Martin implemented is working at least from version 0.146 which is present in jaunty repository.

Regarding how to identify when a system is running UNR, I agree on that it's unclear how to detect it. On one hand there's the possibility to check for some UNR-specific packages being installed, on the other hand checkbox may provide some hints if we rely on the fact that UNR will run only in some specific hardware.

IMHO u-n-r-default-settings should just ship that new configuration
file, then there's no need to detect anything. Wouldn't that work for
you?

Yes, that should work at the moment. However, I was just thinking that, in a future scenario with different projects all of them using the same package repository with minor modifications, that strategy might not work.

As I understand it bugs regarding the 8.04 version of Ubuntu Netbook Remix should be filed on a separate project than the Ubuntu distribution which it sounds like is in place. However, 9.04 UNR bugs should be filed about Ubuntu and those are the ones that should have the ubuntu-unr tag I was talking about in the description.

I see. That means we need to backport the apport infrastructure to
Hardy? Or just update some guidelines on the wiki?

I see. This can be done easily, u-n-r-default-settings just needs to
ship /usr/share/apport/general-hooks/unr.py with

-------------- snip ------------------
def add_info(report):
    report['Tags'] = report.get('Tags', '') + ' ubuntu-unr'
-------------- snip ------------------

I added the hook and confirmed that ubuntu-bug with the old u-n-r-d-s package would not add any tag and with the new u-n-r-d-s package added the ubuntu-unr tag.

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings - 0.5.1

---------------
ubuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings (0.5.1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Add Apport hook debian/unr.py installed in
    /usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ which sets the ubuntu-unr tag on bugs
    reported when this package is present (usually when running UNR);
    LP: #354137.
