           Summary: Crash Reported doesn't let me enter additional details
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: carheden at ucar.edu


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

Crash Reporting Assistant walks doesn't ever ask me about what I was doing when
the crash occurred even though I checked the box saying I could provide that
info.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Do something that opens the KDE Crash Handler
2) Click Report Bug to open the Crash Reporting Assistant
3) Click Next
4) Click 'Yes' for "Do you remember what you were doing prior to the crash?"
5) Check the 'What I was doing when the application "System Settings" crashed'
checkbox under "Please select which additional information you can provide:"
6) Click Next (show the backtrace with the message "This crash information is
probably not useful" [assuming you don't have the debugging symbols installed])
7) Click Next

Actual Results:  
Crash Reporting Assistant tells me that "This report does not contain enough
information for the developers, so the automated bug reporting process is not
enabled for this crash." Bug report is not submitted.

Expected Results:  
I expected to be given a place to type in info about my bug (similar to this
form) where I /could/ provide useful information and have my bug report
submitted without having to create an account on this site and do all this
manually.

If you're not going to let me do that without debugging symbols, at lease don't
tease me by making me go through your stupid wizard. Just don't bother with the
Crash Reporting Tool in the first place unless debugging symbols are installed.
