764 - should more correctly determine the gnome-core version
766 - change 'severe' severity to 'grave'
777 I've just released the first version of bug-buddy, a graphical
778 bug reporting utility.
780 The goal of bug-buddy is to make reporting bugs very simple and easy
781 for the user, while making the reports themselves more useful and
782 informative for the developer.
786 - ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/bug-buddy/
790 - automatic stack trace gathering, either from a core file
791 or from a crashed application. No messing with gdb :)
793 - determines the versions of different components installed
796 - can be started from gmc (double clicking on a core file)
797 and from the crash dialog, if you have gnome-libs 1.0.53
798 (October GNOME) or higher installed
802 - libglade: 0.5 or later required (CVS version has some layout
805 - gdb is required to obtain a stack trace automatically
807 - gnome-libs 1.0.53 or higher recommended
811 - yes, some information about your system will be submitted
812 to the bug tracking system. This is limited to versions of
813 system and gnome components, but I figure I should mention it.
815 - bug reports for bug-buddy are appreciated
