>W.r.t. use of apport, there could not be anything in apport as the application didn't start at all, isn't it?
Whether or not the application starts, ubuntu-bug still adds information based on the package. I pulled up a random example, if you take a look at the last section in bug 1558370, that's automatically added info on package version, the Ubuntu release and architecture. (Fair enough, for an interpreted language the CPU architecture often doesn't matter, but there are cases where some bugs only happen on certain hardware and it is not possible to reproduce elsewhere). In this case, it's pretty straight forward to recreate. (And the suggested solution looks good, I hope the maintainers will take a look at it soon :) ) But there are cases where it helps with the additional information to tell if the bug might have been fixed in a newer release, or if I'm missing something. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1921803 Title: visual-regexp fails to start complaining “wish8.5” not found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/visual-regexp/+bug/1921803/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
