✨ ABRT-ACTION-SAVE-(1) ✨ 💖

Okay bestie, let's talk about abrt-action-save-package-data 🎀 It's the tool that digs into a crash report's problem directory and figures out which package and component the crash came from 💅

👑 NAME

abrt-action-save-package-data — query the package database and save the package and component name 🌸

🧚 SYNOPSIS

abrt-action-save-package-data [-v] [-c CONFFILE] -d DIR

🦋 DESCRIPTION

okay so this tool reads the problem directory DIR ✨ It looks at the analyzer, executable, cmdline and remote elements, checks the database of installed packages, and then creates brand new package and component elements for you 🫶

lowkey this data is usually needed if the problem is going to get reported to a bug tracking database 💀 so it's kind of essential, no cap 🔥

💜 Integration with ABRT events

this tool can be used as an ABRT reporter, and it's giving main character energy 👑 Here's an example fragment for /etc/libreport/report_event.conf:

    # Determine in which package/component the crash happened (if not yet done):
    EVENT=post-create component=
            abrt-action-save-package-data

---
