Justin Azoff commented on BIT-1510:
-----------------------------------

Hmm.. Often the cause of that is the OOM killer.. so potentially a note about that could be useful, as well as potentially including part of the dmesg output in the email.

> We need to make broctl stop sending crash reports when Bro was shutdown by a signal.  It's confusing for users because they will get these emails sporadically when restarting Bro.
> The crash report typically has the following text and no backtrace:
> ==== stderr.log
> KILLED
> received termination signal
