Title:
ubunt-bug aborts
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
In a lot of places we are told to use ubunt-bug to trip apport to send
bugged information somewhere. When you use the said app, it panics and
exits out, not reporting anything. It produces no error code.
I tried two different ways to report a kde-session bug and got thrown
back to a terminal one time and told I was using non-standard X
packages another time, which is an outright LIE as I am using kubuntu
live media(14.04.3). Users will find this application difficult to use
and therefore either not use it or not know where to turn to file
bugs.
Launchpad is suggested but filing a launchpad bug is bugged in
itself.(another bug report) Then there is the method using
errors.ubuntu.com instead of launchpad. The reporting method and such
needs to be more centralized and standardized.There is no reason why
errors have to sent in seperately, they can be attached to launchpad
reports. Asking a user to reboot after updating is pointless on a live
cd. It accomplishes nothing.
