Title:
The GUI of Apport quits with an error message "needs PID"
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
When I start Apport to report a bug, I have two choices:
1. Run "ubuntu-bug <packagename>"
2. Run "ubuntu-bug"
I chose the latter case.
I was then asked whether my bug falls into one of a few obscure
categories. None of them sounded likely, so I chose "other".
Then, Apport just displayed an error message, saying it "needs a PID"
or something. I have no idea what a PID is, so how am I supposed to
continue filing a bug report?
Instead, Apport should have offered me to pick an application from the list
of currently running applications.
Or, to enter a package name.
Or, to enter the name of an executable. (In the case of Apport, "ubuntu-bug
ubuntu-bug" doesn't work, which surprised me a lot.)
Or, to enter just a search term, and then choose from a list of packages or
executables.
