The Mauku website is now ready to receive backtrace upload. If Mauku (>= 0.4.1) crashes, it will ask your permission to upload a debug info.

    0.4.2 did that once, but it just worked a minute ago. I'd say 0.4.x is less stable than vanilla 0.4. Like the gestures tho

    I've had Mauku (0.4.2.1) crash a few times on its own now, and have not been prompted to upload the backtrace. Any suggestions?

    @atmasphere, yes, no 404 anymore. @CAW, so the reason for crash may be otner than segmentation fault. I will improve the backtrace uploader in the near future...

    Looks like 0.4.2.1 removed the menu option to force a crash, too. So I can't test that to ensure the uploader is working under that condition.

    What is the binary for the uploader? And where is the backtrace stored in the filesystem? I'd like to see if it's written anything out, and if so, I could manually run the uploader from an xterm.

    The binary is /usr/bin/miaouw-backtrace-uploader. The backtrace is not stored but piped to the binary directly from signal handler.

    I could add the menu option in unstable builds.

    Ah, if it's not stored, then not much I can do. It has to be dying on something the signal handler isn't currently configured to catch then.

    Propably. I suspect the abort signal that is sent when the glib outputs a fatal error message. Only the segmentation fault is catched currently.
