[Bug 1545681] [NEW] apport-gtk is shown as <defunct> in process list

 

Public bug reported:

Everytime I login a couple of crash report "System program problem
detected" dialogs popup. When I click on report problem the on one of
those dialog, it takes a short moment while information is being
gathered and then a second dialog pops up. If on that dialog I click
submit, then the dialog disappears and nothing happens.

When I then focus another f those crash report detected dialogs and try
to report another problem then the second dialog never opens and instead
just nothing happens. While investigating this issue I noticed that
`apport-gtk` is shown as defunct by ps:

[apport-gtk] <defunct>

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will latest updates. It would be nice if
this could be fixed, so I can properly report bugs again.
