Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu
better.
I am not able to trigger this issue here. When I run `ubuntu-bug`
without any package name or other options, I get the small dialog window
to select type of issue I want to report. I didn't click through all of
them, but the options seemed to be working too.
I notice that I'm running apport-gtk 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 (on Ubuntu 16.04)
which is a newer version than the one where this was originally
reported. Could you please check whether you still have this problem
with the latest version of apport?
