Ick, I'd forgotten about this (again!) and I won't have time to work on
this in the next couple of weeks.

You can't really re-use my merge request: it was rejected, and you can't
upload to my branch (which the merge request was for). You can send a
new merge request, though. https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Review
explains how they work.

If you want to take this over, it's probably most expedient to start
from the current upstream code (branch lp:apport), fix it there, and
submit a new merge request.

If you want to continue from where I started, I think you can do
something like this (note it's been a while since I used these tools):

$ bzr branch lp:~marienz/apport/search-for-executable
Branched 1623 revisions.                                                                                              
$ bzr merge lp:apport
Text conflict in apport/ui.py                                                                                         
1 conflicts encountered.                                                                                              

Fix the conflict... it looks like the only conflict is a change from
sys.argv[1] to self.args[0], but I didn't test the result.

$ bzr commit -m 'Merge lp:apport.'

Fix my fix :)

$ bzr commit -m 'Fixed fix.'
$ bzr push lp:~techtonik/apport/search-for-executable

..and submit a new merge request, see
https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Review

Thanks for looking at this! If you don't get to it before I'm back from
my vacation, I'll hopefully (finally) remember to finish up my fix and
get it merged...

Title:
  ubuntu-bug should fall back to using its argument as a command name
  ("ubuntu-bug ubuntu-bug" should work)

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apport

  ubuntu-bug understands package names and the full path to a program.
  If the argument I give it is neither but is the name of an executable
  on $PATH it should do what I mean and use that. It could optionally
  confirm that with me first ("Did you mean to file a bug on /usr/bin
  /ubuntu-bug, owned by the apport package?"). The current "Package
  ubuntu-bug does not exist" message is less useful than this would be.
  I'll probably see if I can cook up a branch with this behavior later.
