For this to work, I had to enable the error reporting switch in system settings/privacy protection.
With error reporting enabled, the browser window opened. This is not a bug, but I'm not very happy with the behaviour: - Having error reporting switched off, I should be able to enforce it via CLI. There should be a corresponding parameter like --ignore-reporting-disabled. (OPT-IN) - OR: Ignoring the disabled reporting should be the default when executing ubuntu-bug manually. (OPT-OUT). If ubuntu-bug was _not_ started manually might require another parameter like --check-reporting-enabled. Unwanted behaviour is: - I have to switch error reporting on (plus, I have to know this by myself!) - ... do my stuff with ubuntu-bug - Switch error reporting off again -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1814611 Title: ubuntu-bug never (any longer) opens browser window Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 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 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1814611/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
