1016 I've made a couple of minor (but kind of important) fixes to bug-buddy.
1020 - ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/bug-buddy/
1024 - should more correctly determine the gnome-core version
1026 - change 'severe' severity to 'grave'
1037 I've just released the first version of bug-buddy, a graphical
1038 bug reporting utility.
1040 The goal of bug-buddy is to make reporting bugs very simple and easy
1041 for the user, while making the reports themselves more useful and
1042 informative for the developer.
1046 - ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/bug-buddy/
1050 - automatic stack trace gathering, either from a core file
1051 or from a crashed application. No messing with gdb :)
1053 - determines the versions of different components installed
1056 - can be started from gmc (double clicking on a core file)
1057 and from the crash dialog, if you have gnome-libs 1.0.53
1058 (October GNOME) or higher installed
1062 - libglade: 0.5 or later required (CVS version has some layout
1065 - gdb is required to obtain a stack trace automatically
1067 - gnome-libs 1.0.53 or higher recommended
1071 - yes, some information about your system will be submitted
1072 to the bug tracking system. This is limited to versions of
1073 system and gnome components, but I figure I should mention it.
1075 - bug reports for bug-buddy are appreciated
