apport can and does send report to two separate systems, Launchpad and the Ubuntu Error Tracker. Sending of reports to the Ubuntu Error Tracker is non-interactive and crashes can be sent to it automatically if whoopsie-upload-all is installed and /var/lib/apport/autoreport exists. This is useful to Ubuntu developers as we then know what which crashes are affecting a lot of users.
Unfortunately, there was a bug in ubuntu-bug which made it impossible for people to report bugs to Launchpad if whoopsie-upload-all was installed. This has not yet been resolved in Trusty although I just uploaded a fix for this for the SRU queue team to review. Removing /var/lib/apport/autoreport isn't a good workaround as then you won't be automatically reporting crashes to the Error Tracker. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1339663 Title: ubuntu-bug fails with "whoopsie-upload-all: error: unrecognized arguments" when /var/lib/apport/autoreport exists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1339663/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
