[Bug 1381075] Re: [ubuntu-touch] upstart should report applications that hit respawn limit to errors.ubuntu.com

[James Hunt]

Note that the kerneloops packages communicates with apport using the
/usr/share/apport/kernel_oops "pipe" program so a script could be
written to make use of similar pipe specifically for respawn failures.
Ideally, that kernel_oops utility would be made generic, accepting args
to specify the name of the package to report the problem against, etc,
and the kerneloops package updated to handle the new interface.

  [ubuntu-touch] upstart should report applications that hit respawn
  limit to errors.ubuntu.com

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  We have important system and session services that we rely on being
  running and functional.

  If such a component hits the upstart respawn limit for any reason, we
  should be able to get a report that something is seriously wrong.
