Package: bug-buddy
Version: 2.22.0+dfsg-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Iceweasel is now crashing several times a day, and each time bug-buddy comes up and tells me
the application 'gecko' is unknown and so the information can't be filed. I've tried starting it from
the command line with 'appname=firefox' or 'appname=iceweasel' but the same thing happens. There is no man
page so no indication is given where the user might configure what applications _are_ known to bug-buddy.
Searched through the gnome and Debian menus and can't find bug-buddy. Read about bug-buddy 'dialog' but
have no idea what to do in order to start such dialog, I think I remember configuring it once way back.
Can't remove it without removing the entire gnome desktop environment.
