Bug description:
The ubuntu bug reporting system is rather badly broken, because when I
run ubuntu-bug/apport-bug, it gathers data, then opens a new blank
firefox window, but does not connect to launchpad!
The root cause is this one:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exo/+bug/1427144
which basically means that apport needs to invoke firefox with a different set of options.
This should be trivial to fix, but I think it's rather important, especially given how hard it is to get a direct report into Launchpad, and all the redirects that emphasise using the ubuntu-bug tool:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
(I'm reporting this from Ubuntu Wily, though I think I recall seeing it in Vivid)
Apport version is: 2.17.3-0ubuntu4
