Apport Hooks

From openSUSE

What are Apport Hooks

You can extend the reports generated by Apport through writing general or package specific hooks.

Examples

A General Hook

This is a general hook. You can place it under /usr/share/apport/general-hook and it will be executed every time one of the Apport UI is processing a report for sending it to the crash database server.
