Two weeks ago I sent few tips for getting of core files. If you did so, maybe you already have many core files and want to get backtraces as easy as possible. Then you can like my script to get good backtraces from these core files with a minimal effort. It checks for needed debuginfo packages, makes a backtrace, and extracts relevant part to .gdbbt file. Simply place following two files into the /cores directory, mark the shell file executable and then simply run: cd /cores ./A-backtraces.sh Tips: It is good to generate backtraces before online update. If you get a new instance of the library, debuginfos may not fit.
