Title: Apport should not just silently fail when it detects the specific crash report has already been uploaded Status in Apport: New Status in Ubuntu GNOME: New Status in apport package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have recently been having some trouble with Apport, I asked it to submit a crash report however there was a problem and it never launched the browser page. Now every time I try to manually submit the .crash file I get an error saying that the crash report has been already submitted (this is logged in syslog and not anywhere obvious). When I use the GUI, and when I use the apport-cli program and ask it to submit a report now on the matter it just silently exists without telling me anything. So how am I even meant to know what the URL is that it has been submitted to? So I think that Apport should really not just silently fail and should instead tell the user that the crash has already been submitted and then actually give them the URL to get to it because otherwise I don't know how one is expected to find it unless they get the Apport's signature generator working manually or something. I am running Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.20.
