He seemed to be MIA, but copying him now. Nope, just because it was a package reintroduction. The main point that still applies here is reopening and triaging the closed+archived bugs plus any items that remain on the PTS/tracker pages: https://packages.qa.debian.org/k/kerneloops.html https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/kerneloops > I have fixed several issues and upstreamed the fixes, but upstream has > not responded so far: > https://github.com/oops-kernel-org/kerneloops/pulls Linux folks are used to dealing with patches via email, maybe try that. > The package still does not work even with the fixes, thus I'm taking a > look at packaging ABRT and libreport instead. IMO Debian really needs > a package for automatically uploading the oops. Maybe have a look and see if any distros have the new kerneloops and have patched it to work (whohas can help there). If no distros have it I guess ABRT is how all the oopses on the site have been submitted. Looking at the mail linked from the site, ABRT is the better option. I think ABRT is interesting for other reasons too but since Debian doesn't have automatic debug packages, those are less useful. https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/22/208 https://wiki.debian.org/AutomaticDebugPackages -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
