Bug Description
Current behavior: When calling apport-retract and specifying a .crash file, apport-retrace tells me the following:
Usage: apport-retrace [options] <apport problem report | crash ID>
apport-retrace: error: you either need to do a local operation (-s, -g, -o) or supply an authentication file (--auth); see --help for a short help
Expected behavior: apport-retrace should modify the specified file, as indicated by the man page.
Demonstration: https:/
This demonstration was recorded on today's utopic iso.
I have installations of the last 3 ubuntu releases (saucy, trusty, utopic) and this bug affects all of them (though trusty is as of 14.04.1 and hasn't been upgraded since then).
Fixed in trunk r2845.
