Binary packages built by this source
- apport: automatically generate crash reports for debugging
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and
compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This utilizes the crashdump
helper hook provided by the Ubuntu kernel.
.
This package also provides a command line frontend for browsing and
handling the crash reports. For desktops, you should consider
installing the GTK+ or Qt user interface (apport-gtk or apport-kde).
- apport-gtk: GTK+ frontend for the apport crash report system
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and
compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This utilizes the crashdump
helper hook provided by the Ubuntu kernel.
.
This package provides a GTK+ frontend for browsing and handling the
crash reports.
- apport-kde: KDE frontend for the apport crash report system
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and
compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This utilizes the crashdump
helper hook provided by the Ubuntu kernel.
.
This package provides a KDE frontend for browsing and handling the
crash reports.
- apport-noui: tools for automatically reporting Apport crash reports
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and
compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This utilizes the crashdump
helper hook provided by the Ubuntu kernel.
.
Installing this package will configure your system to automatically submit
all new Apport crash reports.
- apport-retrace: tools for reprocessing Apport crash reports
apport-retrace recombines an Apport crash report (either a file or a
Launchpad bug) and debug symbol packages (.ddebs) into fully symbolic
stack traces. This can optionally use a sandbox for installing debug symbol
packages and doing the processing, so that entire process of retracing crashes
can happen with normal user privileges without changing the system.
.
You need to install gdb-multiarch if you want to be able to retrace crash
reports which happened on a different architecture than the one you run
apport-retrace on.
- apport-valgrind: valgrind wrapper that first downloads debug symbols
apport-valgrind is a valgrind wrapper that automatically downloads related
available debug symbols and provides them to valgrind's memcheck tool, which
is executed. The output is a valgrind log file ("valgrind.log") that contains
stack traces (with as many symbols resolved as available) and that shows
memory leaks.
- dh-apport: debhelper extension for the apport crash report system
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and
compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This utilizes the crashdump
helper hook provided by the Ubuntu kernel.
.
This package provides a debhelper extension to make it easier for other
packages to include apport hooks.
- python3-apport: Python 3 library for Apport crash report handling
This Python package provides high-level functions for creating and
handling apport crash reports:
.
* Query available and new reports.
* Add OS, packaging, and process runtime information to a report.
* Various frontend utility functions.
* Python hook to generate crash reports when Python scripts fail.
- python3-problem-report: Python 3 library to handle problem reports
This Python library provides an interface for creating, modifying,
and accessing standardized problem reports for program and kernel
crashes and packaging bugs.
.
These problem reports use standard Debian control format syntax
(RFC822).
