Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apport

u...@hostname:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.2
Release:        8.04
---------------------------------------------
u...@hostname:~$ apt-cache policy apport
apport:
  Installed: 0.108.2
  Candidate: 0.108.2
  Version table:
 *** 0.108.2 0
        500 http://fi.archive.ubuntu.com hardy-updates/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     0.108 0

---------------------------------------------

running apport client (both apport-cli and/or apport-gtk ) to file bug
against process  -- so far tried in two variants:

1) from command line
    u...@hostname:~$ apport-cli -f -P 10483

2) manually via menu -> System -> Helpo and Support -> (ubuntu help
window launched) -> Help -> Report problem

expected behaviour: data gathered and submitted via HTTP or HTTPS
real behaviour: after quick data collection, it started to try to reach Ubuntu 
servers, but aborted after timeout with message "Could not upload report data 
to crash database: <urlopen error (110, 'Connection timed out')>"

my environment currently allows only HTTP requests to port 80 and HTTPS
to port 443 and ONLY via http proxy - hence I have it set both in
command line and for Gnome environment, and os far I have enver had any
problem with it.
