Does anyone have any info on which components support or are supported
by abrt or how it's their wiki does not mention it nor how to it's done?
The reason I ask is because I'm working in trying to improve reporting
and their faced with same problem as we @ QA are which is we need to
know what maintainers want on their report. ( which files to attache etc )
If ye want to see more about improved reporting here

I took a look at their Gui and suggested some improvements

There is no rocket science behind my suggestion the upcoming Bugzilla
release is introducing a simpler reporting form see
http://lpsolit.wordpress.com/2009/05/24/simpler-form-to-file-bugs-in-bugzilla-3-4/
if we make abrt look as similar to the bugzilla as we can we reduce the
learning curve for reporters. Reporters that start using abrt will have
no problem using our bugzilla ( if needed ) nor will reporters that are
used to use the bugzilla have no problem using abrt.
Feed back appreciated.
