Public bug reported: Not sure what you want me to put here: I didn't even know there was a problem, except I got an error message. It asked if I wanted to report so y'all can improve things. Sure. Now you want me to provide details on the thing I didn't know about in the first place. Sorry. This should be an optional field. How about that? That's my bug report; make this field optional. That I understand. Remember, "Computing is for everyone." I endorse Ubuntu a lot among friends and associates. I truly prefer it to Mac and Windows. I believe in it. People's big hesitation is that they'll be made to feel inferior asking for help. Please stop making it harder for me to convince them that isn't the case.
