Public bug reported:

I'm running Kubuntu 12.04 alpha2 amd64 with all the daily System
Updates.  apport-kde version 1.94-0ubuntu1

VLC and OpenOffice packages often crash on me (known bugs) and the
yellow-orange crash icon appears in the panel. When I click on it
apport-kde displays a small window saying something crashed.  If I click
[Details] a textarea appears in this, but I've never seen anything in it
since upgrading!

apport-kde seems busy running GDB:
  % ps alx | grep 1217
  0  1000 12717  1669  20   0 552108 62532 poll_s Sl   ?          0:03 
/usr/bin/python /usr/share/apport/apport-kde
  0  1000 12767 12717  20   0 518252 457288 -     R    ?          0:20 gdb 
--batch --ex file /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin --ex core-file 
/tmp/tmp6U7936 --ex set backtrace limit 2000 --ex p -99 --ex bt full --ex p -99 
--ex thread apply all bt full --ex p -99 --ex info registers --ex p -99 --ex 
x/16i $pc --ex p -99 --ex print __abort_msg->ms

, but I've left its window up for a while and nothing's ever appeared in
Details.

Expected results
1. At least show "Gathering info" at first.
2. I think apport-kde should always tell me, e.g. 
"libreoffice/program/soffice.bin crashed", even without clicking Details.
