I didn't want to report it from the system which crashed so I ran apport (to do the data collection) and saved the information in the report. I then copied it over to another system which is running Ubuntu 19.04 and I could not report the crash as I received the following crash. $ ubuntu-bug tmp/_usr_bin_do-release-upgrade.0.crash Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk", line 597, in <module> app.run_argv() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 704, in run_argv self.run_crash(self.options.crash_file, False) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 291, in run_crash if not self.report and not self.load_report(report_file): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 1375, in load_report self.report.load(f, binary='compressed') File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/problem_report.py", line 144, in load block = base64.b64decode(line) File "/usr/lib/python3.7/base64.py", line 87, in b64decode return binascii.a2b_base64(s) binascii.Error: Incorrect padding I've attached the problematic crash file, although I don't really think it is the crash file that is the issue.
