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 in the
abrt.conf
config file. There are plugins for various actions: for example to report
the crash to Bugzilla, to mail the report, or to transfer the
report via FTP or SCP. See the manual pages for the
respective plugins.
OPTIONS
-d
This option causes
abrt
to print more debugging information when the daemon is started.
CAVEATS
When you use some other crash-catching tool, specific for an application
or an application type (for example BugBuddy for GNOME applications),
crashes of this type will be handled by that tool and
not by abrt. If you want abrt to handle these crashes,
turn off the higher-level crash-catching tool.
