Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apport

Originally, I wanted to report a bug about my CD-Rom drive. After
looking up reporting unknown packages on the wiki,
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#Hardware%20Malfunctions)
I decided I should just do what it told me to do and use a command named
ubuntu-bug (apparently in the apport package.) So, I pressed Alt + F2,
typed in ubuntu-bug storage, and told it to open in a terminal.

After that terminal, I was presented with several options:

  1: Removable storage device is not mounted automatically
  2: Internal hard disk partition cannot be mounted manually
  3: Internal hard disk partition is not displayed in Places menu
  4: No permission to access files on storage device
  5: Documents cannot be opened in desktop UI on storage device
  6: Other problem
  C: Cancel

Since my problem was none of those, I went for option 6, hoping I could 
manually specify the problem.
After doing so, I was given this error message:

Please use "ubuntu-bug <packagename>" to report a bug against the
particular package

Press any key to continue...

Well, that doesn't really fix any of my problems :S

I just think that we should be able to specify what the problem is, when
using option 6, if we don't know the package.

(P.S. Does anyone find it ironic that I'm reporting a bug for bug
reporting software?)
