Sorry for a bit of a naive question, since I don't know the full span of
problems that ABRT needs to solve, but how much UI is needed for a
problem reporting app? For a lot of other platforms and apps it's
usually a dialog or a checkbox, but perhaps their requirements are very
different from ABRT.
For someone who's not a problem-reporting-geek, but happy to help
improving Fedora, I found the latest version in F22 such an improvement
to the extent that I no longer turn it off on a fresh installation.
Previously I had a really hard time reporting crashes and the UI
confused me a lot. Big thanks to all the developers who worked on the
latest version!
(I turned on automatic reporting on both my systems from today btw, hope
the data is useful!)
