I see a similar (same?) issue: if I say a bug is display-related, apport collecting problem information hangs ~20% through the process and neither "Cancel" nor (x) can stop the process. Cancel in the parent window helps.

After a crash of bluetoothd (see bug 1910405) I tried to run apport- collect with the bug ID, but the process hangs. After clicking cancel, it makes the computer hang totally, except running teams calls that keep streaming but without interaction possible. All is released when apport is killed manually. The problem also occurs when a crash of the Brave browser causes a call to apport. This bug is generated through ubuntu-bug -w after clicking on the apport-collect window. This second apport process doesn't hang.
