ubuntu-bug is a wrapper around apport-cli and apport-cli has an option
for saving the report for later. The documentation says:
--save=PATH In bug filing mode, save the collected information
into a file instead of reporting it. This file can
then be reported later on from a different machine.
Saving the bug report to a file can be useful when the machine you are
testing on does not have internet access. After saving the file and
moving it to a system with internet access you can use 'apport-cli
my.crash' (where my.crash is the saved crash file) to send the report to
Launchpad.
