Bug Description
when creating a bug report about gedit the following messages were displayed when I used UBUNTU-BUG:
bill@wb4alm-07:~$ ubuntu-bug gedit
/usr/share/
from gi.repository import GLib, Wnck, GdkX11, Gdk
=======
later I tried to report this problem with ubuntu-bug
and received some additional messages.
bill@wb4alm-07:~$ ubuntu-bug ubuntu-bug
/usr/share/
Use gi.require_
from gi.repository import GLib, Wnck, GdkX11, Gdk
dpkg-query: no packages found matching ubuntu-bug
Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
=======
Note: this results in a error message window that states
"The problem cannot be reported"
"The report belongs to a package that is not installed."
=======
when you click on "OK" in the error message window, you get:
^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/
app.run_argv()
File "/usr/lib/
return self.run_
File "/usr/lib/
if self.check_
File "/usr/lib/
self.
File "/usr/share/
self.
File "/usr/share/
result = self.md.run()
KeyboardInterrupt
=======
It took a while to discover that ubuntu-bug is part of APPORT (which I did not know). Suggest that the other bug(s) about ubuntu-bug help files also be fixed...
