Version: 2.0-0ubuntu4 2012-04-03 14:06:48 UTC

apport (2.0-0ubuntu4) precise; urgency=low

  * debian/tests/upstream-system: Drop dead code.
  * debian/tests/upstream-system: Work around LP #972324 by unsetting TMPDIR
    for the tests.
  * Merge test fixes from trunk:
    - test_backend_apt_dpkg.py: Fix checks for the installation of -dbgsym
      packages. This should always happen, as the sandboxes have a ddeb apt
      source. Only make it conditional on the system apt sources in the "use
      system config" test.
    - test_report.py: Sleep a bit after calling our test crash script, to
      ensure the kernel has time to finish writing the core file.

Version: 2.0-0ubuntu1 2012-03-30 12:06:52 UTC

apport (2.0-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream release: This is the final 2.0 release, featuring the
    overhauled and simplified GUI, support for whoopsie-daemon, and
    client-side duplicate checking.
    - report.py, anonymize(): Only replace whole words, not substrings.
      (LP: #966562)
    - apport_python_hook.py: Fix filtering of
      org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply exceptions. (LP: #958575)
    - crashdb.py: When publishing the crash database, cut hash file names
      after quoting, to avoid that the quoting causes them to become too long.
      (LP: #968070) This also uncovered that known() did not actually find any
      signature which contained an URL-quoted character, therefore breaking
      client-side duplicate checking in a lot of cases. Double-quote the file
      name now, as urlopen() unquotes it.
    - Add a new crash database option "problem_types" and a CrashDatabase
      method "accepts(report)". This can be used to stop uploading particular
      problem report types to that database. E. g. a distribution might decide
      to not get "Crash" reports any more after release. Document the new
      option in doc/crashdb-conf.txt.
    - ui.py: Do not upload a report if the crash database does not accept the
      report's type. This behaviour is not really correct, but necessary as
      long as we only support a single crashdb and have whoopsie hardcoded.
      Once we have multiple crash dbs, we need to not even present the data if
      none of the DBs wants the report. See LP #957177 for details.
      (LP: #968121)
    - ui.py: Do not short-circuit information collection if report already has
      a "DistroRelease" field, as the GUIs add that in some cases. Check for
      "Dependencies" instead. This fixes information collection for kernel
      problems (which now has a full GTK GUI test case). (LP: #968488)
  * Merge from trunk:
    - test_ui_gtk.py: Disable package hooks for the tests, as they might ask
      for sudo passwords and other interactive bits, and thus make the tests
      hang.
