If you want to know what a program was doing when it got some error,
the obvious sledgehammer to reach for is strace. Cutting the situation
down to size so you can actually find what you want in strace's
output, now, that's a whole new problem. But the information will be
there. You want a log? Be careful what you wish for, you might get one
that spews more text than python-list does :)
