Public bug reported:
ubuntu-bug --help says
$ ubuntu-bug --help
usage: ubuntu-bug [options] [symptom|pid|package|program path|.apport/.crash
file]
which suggest I can type a symptom after "ubuntu-bug" that I want to report.
But doing something like:
$ ubuntu-bug "Ubuntu Software tells me at every boot that it installed
important OS update 'UEFI dbx'"
only results in the error:
dpkg-query: no packages found matching Ubuntu
The man page of ubuntu-bug states that the symptoms are asked for when I run
"ubuntu-bug" without parameters.
So the --help output is wrong or the program is lacking some fallback if
the message given as sysmptom is neither a pid, nor a package name nor a
program path nor a crash file, the given parameter must be accepted as a
symptom description.
Probably the easiest part to solve that is to remove the nonworking
symptom parameter from the --help output as long as that is not working.
