One should be able to request the URL for a specific crash report

[Wise Melon]

As I said in Bug #1599295, when one submits a crash report and it for some reason fails to open a browser tab/window with the reporting bit one is unable to find the URL to go to as Apport just silently fails (though does log something to syslog).

So I think that as well as the other bug being fixed, it would be really good if one could specify a crash signature or a .crash file and then ask Apport to provide the URL to the uploaded contents where one can then properly report the crash in question (perhaps this could be done by a command-line option or something).

I am running Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.20.

Your crash may have been reported to https://errors.ubuntu.com/ instead of to Launchpad directly.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

The crash was reported to errors.ubuntu.com since the crash was sent from a release which is not in development. whoopsie, which sends the crash reports to the Error Tracker does log the OOPS ID, so you could then go to http://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/$OOPSID to find your crash.
