It should not check if --save is used though.

Title:
  ubuntu-bug should check for internet connection before it starts doing
  anything

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Disconnect from the internet
  2. from a terminal, run "ubuntu-bug some-package"

  Expected result: should immediately warn me that I am not connected to
  the internet.

  Observed result: wastes my time collecting bug data and, in some cases
  depending on the package, prompting for the sudo password. Only after
  that, when it tries to connect to send the bug report, does it realize
  there's no internet connection and it issues an error saying so.

  Also note that there's no "Retry" button, which makes the issue worse.
