Regarding the other items, have a look at the ABRT GUI,
which you can find in the KDE menu under
System > Problem Reporting (Icon with Exclamation Mark)
The tool shows a list of components that recently crashed
and for each of these, among other things
- Version : <component version>
- Reported: {yes, no}
For each crash, you can
- look at "Details" (detailed crash info)
- select "Report" to generate a bug report, after configuring the tool
through the "ABRT configuration" menu entry
- select "Clear" to delete no longer needed crash info
Bug reporting via "Report" used to work for me (F22, some months ago),
but you may need to install debug packages in order to generate/submit
a complete bug report with stack trace etc.
IMO "Problem Reporting" is quite useful to get a quick overview of
the most recent crashes, but I'm not sure whether the ABRT reports
I submitted were ever looked at by anyone ...
Cheers,
