Would that help? Would ABRT be capable of determining the "component" *and*
the bugzilla server for that component? I don't think so. First of all, if
some module/plugin crashes an app, ABRT reports a crash of the app (aka
the bugzilla "component"), not a crash of the module/plugin. Secondly,
a 3rd party bugzilla does not handle all Fedora components. Even if you
let the user choose which bz to send to, there would be enough cases where
the chosen server would be the wrong one.

well, yes, indeed abrt asks the user to choose where to report, so, there are two things that can happen here: user chooses the right place and the report is successful, or the user selects the wrong one and the report fails, like it happened to me yesterday, when abrt attempted a report on audacity, but the installed version was from rpmfusion and (i assume) the component was not found in bugzilla. it would've been good to have the opportunity to add rpmfusion's bugzilla to the list, so that all the debuginfo-install's were not in vain.

btw, is there a way to tell abrt which components are in bugzilla.redhat.com so that the selection will be made from the start?
