Public bug reported:

jerry@Aspire1:~$ ubuntu-bug linux
tail: cannot open ‘/var/log/syslog’ for reading: No such file or directory

Took a look, there is no syslog.  In spite of all this on the screen
ubuntu-bug does work:

jerry@Aspire1:~$ jerry@Aspire1:~$ ubuntu-bug linux
jerry@Aspire1:~$: command not found
jerry@Aspire1:~$ tail: cannot open ‘/var/log/syslog’ for reading: No such file 
or directory
No command 'tail:' found, did you mean:
 Command 'tailf' from package 'util-linux' (main)
 Command 'tail' from package 'coreutils' (main)
tail:: command not found
jerry@Aspire1:~$ jerry@Aspire1:~$ 
jerry@Aspire1:~$: command not found
jerry@Aspire1:~$ (process:3240): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: 
assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `:'
jerry@Aspire1:~$ NOTE: child process received `Goodbye', closing down

Not much in /var/log:

jerry@Aspire1:~$ ls /var/log
boot.log  dmesg    gpu-manager.log  pm-powersave.log  udev
cups      dmesg.0  lightdm          samba             Xorg.0.log

Thanks.
