Public bug reported: The ubuntu bug reporting system is rather badly broken, because when I run ubuntu-bug/apport-bug, it gathers data, then opens a new blank firefox window, but does not connect to launchpad!
The root cause is this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exo/+bug/1427144 which basically means that apport needs to invoke firefox with a different set of options. This should be trivial to fix, but I think it's rather important, especially given how hard it is to get a direct report into Launchpad, and all the redirects that emphasise using the ubuntu-bug tool: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs (I'm reporting this from Ubuntu Wily, though I think I recall seeing it in Vivid) Apport version is: 2.17.3-0ubuntu4 ** Affects: apport (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: irony -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1464053 Title: ubuntu-bug is itself broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1464053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
