Kangarooohello can anyone explain in this page where is written TODO ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash15:07
godbykKangarooo: Open Synaptic, find the package you're trying to debug (let's pretend it's called xyzzy), then see if there's a package named xyzzy-dbg.  If there is a package named xyzzy-dbg, install that package.15:09
Kangaroooand only if not then do all what's in that wiki? ok thanks15:10
godbykKangarooo: Correct.15:11
Kangaroooyes I found package for what crashed and how now to use that? installed but have no icon anywhere15:15
godbykOnce you've installed the package, you can just run the same program again.15:16
Kangarooogdb thunar ?15:16
godbykIt replaces the existing program with one that has extra code to output debug info.15:16
Kangaroooand that will help update reported bug report?15:16
godbykIt will generate more information that is helpful to the developers reading your bug report.15:16
godbykDid the program crash?  Or was there some other problem?15:17
Kangarooocrash happened for thunar and report is here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/578275 so since sometimes even pictures and video is not helping get bug faster done I want to try more deeper info giving so how with this gdb can I add more info to this bug?15:18
ubot4Kangarooo: Error: Bug #578275 is private.15:18
Kangarooois it private couse there is sensitive info? couse I reported full bug report 48mb15:19
godbykIf thunar crashes again, link that debug info to the same bug report. It will add more information for the developers.15:19
Kangarooogodbyk: but how to link that? couse if a bug report pops up then pressing send I can make new bug but to existing its possible only if using apport-collect bugnumber15:21
godbykHmm.. that's a good question.15:22
godbykYou could generate a new bug and mark it as a duplicate of the existing bug.15:22
godbykThen add a comment to the existing bug saying there is more info in the new bug.15:22
Kangarooowell yes but becouse of that many are mad. I've also reported that ubuntu-bug packagename only gives option to ad info to new bug only and that only apport-collect bugnumber adds info to existing bug. but ok that's the only option right now15:23
Kangaroooand becouse now this package is installed it will give more info to only next crash? or also to bug report- also if crash didn't happen? and what kind of info?15:23
godbykI'm afraid I don't know, then.  You might as in #ubuntu.15:24
godbykWith the dbg package installed, it will only give extra info on the next crash.15:25
Kangarooook ill maybe then make a new gobby document to with this all raw info to later it would be a new wiki with better info or should I edit wiki even if I don't corret how to write english?15:26
godbykI'm not sure what's best to do there.  Sorry.15:27
Kangarooook ill make new gobby that's safer15:27
