This issue tracks the release note for the following F26 Change:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/coredumpctl
If you want to write this release note, then:
Note that sometimes, the contact people are unresponsive. Try to do your best, but if nobody gets back to you, it's not the end of the world.
Once you're done with the above, make sure to either commit the relnote to an appropriate section of the Release Notes book, or, if you're not familiar with Git, DocBook, or whatever else, just add it to this issue as a comment and let pbokoc[1] know that you're done with this one and you'd like the note included. Be sure to do this at least one day before the final release (so the limit is July 10 according to the current schedule). Also make sure to do this even for relnotes that haven't been checked by the change owner.
[0] You can do that by asking the change owner listed on the wiki page; alternatively you can infer it by checking the tracker bug (linked in Wiki) in Bugzilla and looking at its status; see bug comments for details. Ask someone on the mailing list or on IRC if you're not sure. [1] In #fedora-docs on FreeNode (UTC+1 timezone, online mostly during the day on weekdays), or pbokoc@redhat.com if you can't get a hold of me on IRC.
From the change:
By default, core dumps from crashing programs are now stored by systemd-coredump, rather than created in the crashing process's current working directory by ABRT. They may be extracted using the coredumpctl tool. For example, simply run 'coredumpctl gdb' to view a backtrace for the most recent crash in gdb. For more information on this change, refer to the manpages coredumpctl(1), systemd-coredump(8), and coredump.conf(5).
@catanzaro do you want anything else noted?
That description looks good!
I have added the above text into the Release Notes (see Commit 89ab58d).
