[Bug 1539263] [NEW] ubuntu-bug / apport user-interface mixed up

 

Public bug reported:

I ran "ubuntu-bug" (without package name) to file a "general" bug. A
small window opened, where I could use radio buttons to select one of of
8 options ("Other problem", "ubuntu-release-upgrader", ... , "Display
(X.org)"). I selected "Other problem" and I got a small window with the
question "What display problem do you observe?" and eight options to
choose from ("Other display-related problem", "Fonts are the wrong
size", ... , "I don't know"). I quit and restarted "ubuntu-bug". This
time, I chose "Display (X.org)" and got the message "You need to specify
a package or a PID. See --help for more information." I seems that
something gets mixed up. I tried many times and every time when I do the
same, I observe exactly the same behaviour. Thus, the bug is perfectly
reproducible.

I tried to report the bug using "ubuntu-bug apport" but this seems not
to work. Chrome opens a new tab with the launchpad website but it did
not find the bug report there. Therefore, I ran "ubuntu-bug apport
--save apport-apport.txt" and I will attach the file created by ubuntu-
bug / apport.
