NAME

abrt-plugins - plugins for the abrt crash reporter program  

DESCRIPTION

abrt is a daemon that watches for application crashes. When a crash occurs, it collects the crash data (core file, application's command line etc.) and takes action according to the type of application that crashed and according to the configuration specified in the abrt.conf configuration file. Plugins allow abrt to perform various actions: for example, to report the crash to Bugzilla, to mail the report, to transfer the report via FTP or SCP, or to run a program that you specify. This manual page provides a list of all the manual pages for these plugins. If you want to create your own plugin, refer to the PLUGINS-HOWTO file in the documentation directory.  

INVOCATION

Each plugin is invoked in the abrt.conf configuration file, in the section that is appropriate to what you want abrt to do.  

CONFIGURATION

Almost every plugin has its configuration file, stored in the /etc/abrt/plugins directory.
