This bug was fixed in the package apport - 1.93-0ubuntu1
---------------
apport (1.93-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream bug fix release:
- apport-gtk: Fix crash on nonexisting icon. Thanks Evan Dandrea.
(LP: #937354)
- ui.py, open_url(): Revert back to calling sudo instead of dropping
privileges ourselves; with the latter, calling firefox as the sudo'ing
user fails. (LP: #916810, #938128)
- ui.py: Fix aborting with "AssertionError" if the report is already
known, but without an URL. (LP: #938778)
- launchpad.py: If a bug is already known, but the report is private, do
not send the report. There is little sense piling up lots of duplicates.
(LP: #938700)
- test/crash: Fix regression of test_crash_apport(), consider $TERM a
non-sensitive variable.
- ui.py: Fix test failures for data collection progress, they are not
expected to happen for "ProblemType: Crash" any more (happens in the
background during sending, or if user clicks on "Show Details").
- test/hooks: Use a package from Debian/Ubuntu main, so that this works
better during package builds on build servers.
- test/python: Do not assume that /var/crash/ exists. Use /var/tmp/ for
the fake binaries instead.
- data/general-hooks/parse_segv.py: Fix test case name.
- ui.py: Fix crash on invalid core dumps. (LP: #937215)
- launchpad.py: Fix crash on unicode report titles. (LP: #896626)
- apport-gtk: Show the most interesting fields first in the details view.
- do-release: Call pyflakes and abort on errors other than unused imports.
- Move all test suites out of the code modules into test/test_<module>.py.
This avoids having to load it every time the program runs, and also
allows running the tests against the installed version of Apport.
- Clean up the other executable test script in test/* and change them to
the same structure as the module tests.
* debian/control: Add python-mock and GTK gir build dependencies for the
gtk/kde tests.
* debian/control: Add procps dependency to avoid a "command not found" error
for killall in the ubuntu.py general hook during the test suite.
* debian/control: Add missing python-gi dependency to apport-gtk.

Title:
apport fails to communicate with the web browser for system-level
crashes (wrong uid or env?)
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “apport” source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Whenever I try to submit a bug report from apport about a system crash
(as opposed to a crash of something running as my user), I get a
dialog popping up with the following error message:
Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new
window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart
your system.
If this is widespread, it's pretty critical to fix since it will
prevent us from getting the bug reports we need from users for the
development cycle.
