As per the original description, apport-collect launched a browser (in
my case, apparently this was lynx). This browser could not complete the
required OAth login (it got me to a screen where I could choose how long
to allow my computer to act on my behalf and when I selected a link it
returned 403 Forbidden). Using w3m (which was already installed) as the
browser allowed me to login and apport-collect could then send all the
information for the bug report. I can't really comment on using various
other apport- tools but unless they do the same job as apport-collect,
I'm not sure they would have helped.
