[Colin Watson]

Hello Evan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted whoopsie-daisy into precise-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whoopsie-
daisy/0.1.33 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

advance!

  Only attempts to retry the existing crash reports once, after two

Bug description:
  process_existing_files is supposed to fire every two hours. However,
  because the function doesn't return a boolean value, glib stops
  processing the two hour timeout event after the first run.

  TEST CASE:

  Terminal 1:
  sudo stop whoopsie
  sudo CRASH_DB_URL=http://nowhereville whoopsie -f

  Terminal 2:
  bash -c 'kill -SEGV $$'
  touch /var/crash/_bin_bash.1000.upload

  Every two hours there should be an attempt to upload the crash report
  in Terminal 1.
