I have had problems with using abrt to report a problem because the backtrace 
does not include symbolics ... that is, debuginfo was not downloaded and 
installed.

At least once during the F12 development cycle I used abrt to report a problem 
and it downloaded and installed the needed debuginfo packages.

Is abrt suppose to download and install debuginfo packages?  Is this an option 
and if it is how is it enabled?  Is there an abrt bug right now preventing 
debuginfo processing?
