I think it's right given
https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/report-ubuntu-bug.html.en
Type Alt+F2 and type ubuntu-bug <package name>
Also see ‘Reporting non-crash hardware and desktop application bugs’
which covers running processes.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Reporting_non-crash_hardware_and_desktop_application_bugs
If you don't give ubuntu-bug any arguments then you have limited
choices, as you've found.
Hmmm. I missed that bit. However, I still found it difficult to get to
the reporting page. I tried 'ubuntu-bug kde', 'ubuntu-bug klipper' and
'ubuntu-bug widget, but they are clearly not actual packages because I
got an error. I then tried 'ubuntu-bug -w', which puts up a dialog
telling the user to click on the open package, but was unable to find
the right window to click on.
I then tried searching through the installed packages (it took ages) and
managed to get past the first hurdle using 'ubuntu-bug kde-full'. Here
we are encouraged to go to Ubuntu Answers to ask a question; and that is
what I have done.
