[Bug 2101906] Re: Apport apparently hung while gathering information for another crash. CPU time was logged at around 20hrs+ when I found out.

Hi Benjamin,

I can imagine it's frustrating trying to get to the bottom of a problem
like this - I'll do what I can to contribute! With that being said
though, I was only able to find the _usr_share_apport* crash file you
mentioned - the most recent _usr_bin_apport* file is from March 5. I've
attached what I think is the relevant file you were looking for. Let me
know if there's anything else I can do.

** Attachment added: "_usr_share_apport_apport.0.crash"

Title:
  Apport apparently hung while gathering information for another crash.
  CPU time was logged at around 20hrs+ when I found out.

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This machine has been generating a lot of crashes (sorry for all of
  the uploads...) including apport its self, but hopefully the
  information collected here is able to narrow down what's going on.

  
  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
  Release:        20.04

  $ apt-cache policy apport
  apport:

    Candidate: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.27

  Expected to happen: apport does its work in a timely manner then exits.

  What appeared to happen: apport had hung/entered a loop which at the
  time I found it, with above twenty hours of CPU time. Unfortunately I
  can't offer any other information about the circumstances or why
  apport had entered this state besides what was captured by apport on
  its self.
