Kerneloops

[manoj.iyer at canonical.com]

James,

I tested kerneloops & apport for Jaunty, it filed a bug at kernelopps.org 
and also filed a bug in Launchpad. IMHO tagging the launchpad bug such 
that it indicates that the bug was reported to kerneloops.org will be a 
good thing. Also I noticed that when the crash or oops happned again, 
apport will file the same bug again (or ask the user if they want to file 
a bug). This was a but annoying. Is there a mechanism to detect that this 
bug was already filed and avoid duplicate bugs being filed from the same 
machine ?

Is there any mechanism by which I can save the apport data from one 
machine and file the bug on kerneloops from a different machine ? This is 
specially useful in server setup that does not have network connection to 
the outside world.

Cheers
