Public bug reported:
the man page of ubuntu-bug/apport-bug (what is the difference? why am I
shown the manpage of apport-bug when typing man ubuntu-bug?) says
running apport-bug without arguments results in showing me a list of
symptoms.
When I try to report a bug in some general program that is not related
to the other 9 categories - which is most of the 10000 apps in Ubuntu -
I must chose "Other Problem" - but in contrary to the man page that
tells me I am asked about further things, I only get "You need to
specific the pakacge or PID".
I currently try to report a bug in the things that identifies itself as
"Ubuntu Software" in the Dock, but I have no idea what its correct
program or package name is, and have no idea how to find that. In PS
there is no process with "ubuntu" or "software" in its name.
