Title:
  apport opens launchpad in links2 browser when reporting a system-level
  crash

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When apport attempts to report a user-level crash, it opens Launchpad
  in the default browser (firefox) and all is fine.

  However, should a system-level crash occur, once I've typed in my
  administrator password apport will attempt to open Launchpad using the
  links2 browser (in graphics mode).

  I have not checked whether links2 is being run as root, but if so,
  this is presumably a serious security hole (I will make sure to check
  this with the next system-level crash that occurs).

  Ubuntu version: 13.10
