It asks me for a PID, even though it didn't in previous versions. If I don't provide one or if I choose "other problem", it closes saying that I need a PID. If I put the symptoms in the terminal, it crashes saying there is no package matching the description.

I have several bugs that don't affect any of the options provided by "Ubuntu-bug" hence I would need to file it under "other problem".

You can type the package name if you think you know what the bug is about. For example, if its nautilus causing the problem type 

ubuntu-bug nautilus

in your termial or by pressing Alt+F2. Or if it is firefox then type

ubuntu-bug firefox

Hope this helps.

  • I know that. The thing is that I don't want to fill the bug on any particular package, or a package I don't know. – tutuca Oct 14 '11 at 14:40
  • well, in that case you can just give a descriptive bug report without the apport details. After the developers read and understand your problem, they will ask you to give apport bug report with the right package name. – Ubuntuser Oct 14 '11 at 16:19
  • riiight, what I'm saying is that apport doesn't let you do that. Although the helps says it should. – tutuca Oct 15 '11 at 00:15
