Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS, X11 gnome session.

For some reason ubuntu-bug <packagename> no longer opens a browser
window, so it is not possible to enter useful bug detauls, or even know
the bug number.

After prompting whether or not to Send the report, clicking "Send" just
closes appport and nothing else ever happens.  The exit status of
"ubuntu-bug" is zero.

This worked fine before, but it has been many months since I tried to
submit a bug.

strace shows many stat calls on plausible browser paths, including the one that 
is correct (/usr/bin/firefox, which returned a successful stat call).  I'll 
attach the trace output from
   
   strace -f -o /tmp/strace.log ubuntu-bug apport
