Description Will Stephenson 2010-11-09 16:59:10 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Dr Konqi reports could be enhanced by the inclusion of app logs.
Would it be possible to include a Log tab that allows enabling logging by the crashed app to a file and viewing this log on subsequent crashes?

Reproducible: Didn't try

With the new dynamic debug areas (named after the main component) this could be done easily. drkonqi could write
[componentname]
InfoOutput=0
InfoFilename=locateLocal("tmp",componentname+".dbg")
to kdebugrc and read from that file next time.

Automatic crash reports also collect logs in plasma6
