Please note that comment 4 was misleading, you can't "upload to main". This package has always been in universe since the MIR hasn't been approved yet. Blockers that I see with the current package:

 - Does not ever forget a crash, but reminds me about one at each and every desktop login. I had to purge the package to get rid of it.

 - The UI is utterly confusing. It opens a dialog box at session start saying

     Your system had a kernel failure.

       [ OK ] [Cancel]

   Regardless of which button I press, the dialog just goes away and nothing happens. I don't know whether it sends the report to kerneloops.org (how can I tell), but if so, it should point out that it's going to send some information to the network, and give some confirmation once that's done. E. g. "OK" should then be called "Send report to kerneloops.org ...".

The apport integration which it already attempts to do doesn't work, but that's rather a bug, not a blocker for MIR.
