I'm happy to announce that we've finished our work on adding support for CentOS Bug Tracker to ABRT.

The final solution requires a not yet released version of MantisBT as we've decided to enhance MantisBT instead of developing a plugin (it was impossible to develop such a plugin). We've written a short installation documentation available at:

https://github.com/abrt/libreport/wiki/Reporting-to-CentOSBT#installing-the-required-mantisbt

The patches adding support for MantisBT resp. CentOS Bug Tracker have landed in the upstream master but we've also back-ported them to RHEL-7 and created a COPR repository with the updated packages:

https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/mhabrnal/abrt-centos/

yum (upgrade|update) will install three new packages:

* libreport-plugin-mantisbt - libreport plugin for communication with MantisBT

* libreport-centos - configuration required for CentOS Bug Tracker

* abrt-retrace-client - allows users to generate backtrace from coredump without the need to download debuginfo

After upgrading you have to do some changes to your setup that are described here:

https://github.com/abrt/libreport/wiki/Reporting-to-CentOSBT#abrt-centos

Finally, you have to set the CentOS Bug Tracker URL to the testing instance. (Unfortunately, I am not able to find that URL in my mailbox).

All the necessary information required for enabling reporting to CentOS Bug Tracker are available at:

https://github.com/abrt/libreport/wiki/Reporting-to-CentOSBT

We are looking forward to receive your feedback.

Jakub Filak
