   'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/app.crash' (and even more so, 'apport-cli -c /var/crash/app.crash') should still allow manual bug filing in stable releases

Title:
  apport fails to open browser window to complete bug submission

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  ... of course it did it this time, as a result of typing 'ubuntu-bug
  apport' in order to report this; but *normally* when I encounter some
  application crash and the usual apport dialogue comes up offering to
  send a report to the developers, etc., and I click "Continue", the
  apport window disappears and nothing further happens. So the bugs
  aren't getting reported.

  I suppose it could be that they fall into either "you're running an
  old version, update" (unlikely, I'm an update-fetishist!), or a "the
  developers are already aware of this one" case, but it used to at
  least say so if that was the case. As it is at the moment, there's
  just nothing happening, and it looks like it's broken, hence this
  report.

  I've also wondered if it's a "saucy isn't even in *alpha* yet! go away
  until it is!" ;-) But I wouldn't mind being told that either. :-)

  (btw, default browser is google chrome - which worked fine just now in
  the "ubuntu-bug <package>" case, so i don't think that's the problem.
  I'd have thought if it was you could always just force the use of a
  supported in-repo browser whatever the default is?)
