[Bug 1306175] Re: whoopsie should not send some data to daisy

[Brian Murray]

I've verified this fix for precise, you can find the error report from
whoopsie version 0.1.34 here:

https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/56555f16-c4d0-11e3-8bb1-fa163e707a72

There is no Stacktrace or ThreadStacktrace.

Title:
  whoopsie should not send some data to daisy

Status in “whoopsie” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “whoopsie” source package in Precise:
  In Progress
Status in “whoopsie” source package in Saucy:
  In Progress
Status in “whoopsie” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  TEST CASE:
  0) sudo rm -f /var/crash/*
  1) run xeyes &
  2) then use 'pkill -11 xeyes'
  3) choose to send your crash to errors
  4) answer no to any additional data collection questions as its not used
  5) verify there is a _usr_bin_xeyes.1000.uploaded file in /var/crash (this means the crash was uploaded to errors)
  6) go to the crashes you've reported page at errors.ubuntu.com (echo "http://errors.ubuntu.com/user/"$(printf $(sudo cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid) | sha512sum) )
  7) click on the link for the top crash there (it is the one most recently reported)
  With the version of whoopsie from -proposed you will not find keys for Stacktrace or ThreadStacktrace on the page for the crash.

  REGRESSION POTENTIAL:
  None, really we are just uploading less data to the error tracker which wasn't used anyway.

  apport reports contain some incomplete data that becomes more useful
  when the crash report has been retraced with the package with debug
  symbols enabled, it is wasteful for whoopsie to be submitting this
  data to daisy.

  The fields are Stacktrace, and ThreadStacktrace.  These should be
  removed from whoopsie's acceptable_fields and not sent to daisy any
  longer.
