[Kimchi-devel] debugreport generation error

[Christy Perez]

Hi,

I randomly decided to try out the debugreport feature on my Fedora 20
latptop today and ran into an issue. The first odd thing was that I was
asked to login to the kimchi portal again, but maybe that's on purpose?

Next, the action seems to hang indefinitely. I scrolled back up and
found this call trace:

I did find that someone else is hitting this issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1028102 (which is actually
from an IBM bug...)
https://bugzilla.linux.ibm.com/show_bug.cgi?id=99234
And I also found this opened against kimchi:
https://bugzilla.linux.ibm.com/show_bug.cgi?id=101135

So I tried running it myself in a terminal, and I got an error:

$ sosreport 

sosreport (version 3.0)

no valid plugins were enabled

So I tried running it as root:

$ sudo sosreport
[sudo] password for christy: 

sosreport (version 3.0)

So this time it worked better, but, not completely. It hung again there
at 39/65.

I eventually got an sosreport (including the above traceback still) by
using: 
$ sudo sosreport -v --batch -n networking -n systemd

I just wanted to share my findings, in case there are more bugs opened
for this. It seems to be a problem for Power and x86.
