I had similar report yesterday for Ruby [1]. The thing is that this
particular report is for CentOs, but if you click on associated
"Problem" [4], there you can find also similar Fedora issues, such as
[2]. For this issue, I clicked on "Associate bug", created issue in BZ
[3], closed it as "CANTFIX" and finally associated this issue with the
problem. This BZ should now appear in ABRT gui if somebody encounters
the problem again.

I discussed this issue with ABRT guys and they believe that this should
be improved somehow, hence there is now (a bit vague ;) upstream ticket
[5] , which should allow maintainers to provide some generic feedback on
this kind of bugs (but the BZ ticket might be good interim solution IMO).
