Yes, they're indeed different, however, if you go to Administration -> 
Setup -> Horde and then Problem Reporting, they even list example for 
using Whups with the problem reporting.. I did some Googling on it, and 
found notes from 2005 where the developers discussed how to enable this 
functionality, so my guess is that it can be done.. ;)

I pulled cvs today (2006-12-26), and even built a RPM for SUSE Linux 
from it. I can't complain about anything about the module itself so far, 
it lists tickets, they're searchable and editable. But I haven't digged 
deeply into it yet.
