Then you should enhance the general KDE crash agent, so that all programs could \
benefit. This is basically not-invented-here-syndrome on your part.

The general user probably doesn't understand what the mail is about. Nor does he have \
a KDE with debug enabled or the "enable crash agent" setting enabled -- a setting \
which you choose to ignore. I don't see how this gives you usable information from \
general users. More advanced users are probably capable of making a backtrace, or at \
least manually using a tool you would provide.

But the main thing wrong is still that you're trying to force me to report a bug. \
That's a no-no in my opinion. I'm sure the OSS world would cry out if Microsoft did \
what you're doing.

I'm questioning, as I have before, whether Amarok belongs in KDE proper.
