In the original code from Evan this seems to have been done on purpose:
apport.fileutils.mark_report_upload(report_file)
# We check for duplicates and unreportable crashes here, rather
# than before we show the dialog, as we want to submit these to the
# crash database, but not Launchpad.
if self.crashdb.accepts(self.report):
But as Evan, Brian, and Steve all agree that this should not be done any
more, I'll change the behaviour (FWIW, I fully agree to this -- there is
a plethora of reasons for unreportable crashes, like full disks, RAM
errors, modified packages, etc. -- none of which we want on Launchpad,
and presuambly none of them belong into the error tracker either).
