remote kernel crash dump : More testing needed

A couple of weeks ago I announced that I was working on a new remote functionality for kdump-tools, the kernel crash dump tool used on Debian and Ubuntu.

I am now done with the development of the new functionality, so the package is ready for testing. If you are interested, just read the previous post which has all the gory details on how to set it up & test it.

    It’s great, thanks.

    Just want to ask a question, dose it work on Ubuntu 12.10? I tried install kdump-tools on my setup, however, I met package version dependency issue, like below:

    test apt # cat /etc/*release
    DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
    DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.10
    DISTRIB_CODENAME=quantal
    DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=”Ubuntu 12.10″
    NAME=”Ubuntu”
    VERSION=”12.10, Quantal Quetzal”
    ID=ubuntu
    ID_LIKE=debian
    PRETTY_NAME=”Ubuntu quantal (12.10)”
    VERSION_ID=”12.10″

    test / # dpkg -i kdump-tools_1.5.7-4_all.deb
    (Reading database … 82815 files and directories currently installed.)
    Preparing to replace kdump-tools 1.3.7-2 (using kdump-tools_1.5.7-4_all.deb) …

    test / # dpkg -i init-system-helpers_1.22ubuntu2_all.deb
    Selecting previously unselected package init-system-helpers.

    Version of perl-base on system is 5.14.2-13.

    Seems it’s hard to resolve it,

    Thanks.
