Bug Description

Binary package hint: bughelper

Currently, bughelper pulls all attachments of each issue. A typical crash report for feisty looks like bug #86722

There is no value in download CoreDump.gz. It only generates traffic and takes up cache space.

A command line option such as --ignore would be helpful.

thanks

Thanks for your bug report. It should be easy to add a command line option for passing a regex.
Just one thing: CoreDump.gz will not be downloaded as it's not text/plain but application/gzip or something.

Thanks Daniel

I'll double check on the CoreDump thing. My bughelper cache past the 11G mark last night.

Thanks
