Bug Description

After customizing a Ubuntu Precise ISO, and booting into the live environment, I immediately got a crash problem report popup (this is whoopsie/apport right?).

After looking into it, it seemed to be apt-add-repository that had "crashed". However I hadn't started apt-add-repository and there is little reason for it to be executed while just login into Unity (having done nothing else).

And then it hit me, during customization I did abort apt-add-repository once (Ctlr+C) because I was double adding a repository which I had added earlier.

So my guess is whoopsie/apport is activating on first boot reporting problems that occured during customization.

So I think it would make sense to clear the whoopsie/apport data before generating the ISO. I haven't looked into further details yet.

So I just confirmed it, a crash report got left behind in /var/crash.

So it makes sense to clear /var/crash before generating the ISO.
