I apologize if you already received this e-mail via ubuntu-devel but it
seemed important enough to forward to this list in case anyone is not
subscribed to ubuntu-devel.

Subject: Explanation for today's apport bug spam

Hello fellow developers,

today I did a huge cleanup of CoreDump.gz bug attachments. We need to
get rid of them, because they potentially contain sensitive and
personal data, and are very large.

Unfortunately Launchpad sends out email notifications about that, so
that today you will get a large number of email bug spam. This is an
one-time action and will never happen again. 

In the future, apport bugs will silenced thoroughly, see

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CrashReporting

This is going to be implemented soon.

I apologize for the inconvenience!

Martin
