Yes the problem still exists in 11.04:
$ sudo dumpcap -i eth0 -w ~/test.cap
[sudo] password for sune:
The file to which the capture would be saved ("/home/sune/test.cap") could not
be opened: Permission denied.
What DOES work, however, is this:
$ touch ~/test.cap
$ sudo chown root:root ~/test.cap
$ sudo dumpcap -i eth0 -w ~/test.cap
I will run apport-collect, thanks
