A bug can be a flaw in an otherwise functional program, like a typo or an
unclickable button. A crash is when the program ceases to respond to user
interaction, usually seen as it just closing.
An example of a crash on say, android, is when you get a "force close"
message.

ubuntu-bug shouldn't be looking for crash reports. It should
just file a new bug.

I'm there now, nobody seems to talk and the only person who has tells me
'it's a ubuntu package issue'.

Hi!
Just a quick bit of news...
I teach in adult education in North Tyneside, and last year I managed to
talk my manager round to the idea of putting on a beginners course in
Ubuntu within the borough. It means spending scarce funding on what is a
fairly 'off the beam' topic, when the usual p

Hi Alan!
I'm really pleased that you like the the new course concept. I'm going

Erk. That's a shame. Unity is not going away and 10.10 is no longer supported.
I'd seriously reconsider this move.
