Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. However, it seems that you are not using a software package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package.
Even though it may seems as an apport bug, the faulty code is located at /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_gnome-shell.py which should be reported against the gnome-shell-common package, however since the system reporting the error is using a gnome ppa, even that package may be provided by the ppa instead of the official repositories. If you are interested in learning more about software repositories, Ubuntu and apport hooks the following pages should be informative: 1. http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components - information about Ubuntu repositories 2. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - information regarding managing repositories. 3. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/devweek0909/ApportPkgHooks ** Package changed: apport (Ubuntu) => ubuntu ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1171316 Title: TypeError: add_info() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given Status in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Raring i386 + gnome3-team ppas I first try to report against gnome-shell, but apport fail to recognize it as a "gnome3-team" package, and abort due to "third party package".
