It is essential that apport-collect works on a headless/non-X installs
in order to report bugs. In this case, apport-collect tries to use a
text-based browser to attempt to login to Launchpad.
I tried lynx, links2, elinks and w3m, of which only w3m worked. With
elinks I get the following message: "Your Page Was Stale" after
selecting "continue".
To make apport-collect work, execute the following:
sudo apt-get install w3m
sudo update-alternatives --set www-browser /usr/bin/w3m
This bug is related to #556927, #645024 and #683337. As these only
concern the functioning of w3m, I would here like to raise the issue
that a proper installation must make sure that a compatible text-based
browser is installed and set as default.
