Hi,
I'm pretty sure there is a way to achieve this with the current abrt
design, can you please describe how do you imagine this should work?
Thank you,
Jirka
One possibility would be to simply add an dialog to abrt-gui to save the core
dump to some user-specified location. It could offer to run gdb, but that's not
necessary.
I suppose it would also be good to have a non-gui option as well, but I don't
know what that would be.
