Apport symptom scripts
======================

In some cases it is quite hard for a bug reporter to figure out which package to
file a bug against, especially for functionality which spans multiple packages.
For example, sound problems are divided between the kernel, alsa, pulseaudio,
and gstreamer.

Apport supports an extension of the notion of package hooks to do an
interactive "symptom based" bug reporting. Calling the UI with just "-f" and
not specifying any packae name shows the available symptoms, the user selects
the matching category, and the symptom scripts can do some question & answer
game to finally figure out which package to file it against and which
information to collect. Alternatively, the UIs can be invoked with
"-s symptom-name".

This package contains all the Apport symptoms used in Ubuntu.

Please see /usr/share/doc/apport/symptoms.txt for further information.
