Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
>From testing of gutsy amd64 dvd 20071010.2:
I attempted to attach /var/log/installer/syslog directly to a bug
report, from a firefox running as my normal user account.
firefox evidently attempted to read the file and couldn't (because it
wasn't readable to me) and decided therefore that the right thing to do
was to send Launchpad an empty file as the attachment.
Launchpad spotted this problem and reported "Cannot upload empty file",
but not all web applications will do this.
firefox needs to notify the user about problems opening and reading
files, and to not submit incomplete forms or forms with incomplete
files.
** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu)
