Title:
  Cannot examine crash report locally: "Error while creating the child
  process": (No such file or directory)

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When using "Examine locally" after "ubuntu-bug /var/crash/..." and
  selecting to run a gdb session, the following error dialog pops up:

      Error while creating the child process:
      Failed to execute child process "apport-retrace --gdb '/var/crash/....crash'" (No such file or directory)

  It looks like apport is calling the process wrong: instead of as a
  command plus arguments, the whole string might get used as command.

  It works fine from the shell.

  (btw: it would be nice, if copy'n'paste would work for the text of
  such popups)
