Bug Description
Binary package hint: apport
Ubuntu 9.04:
I wanted to report a problem with acpi, so I looked up the running process ID for kacpid and used "sudo ubuntu-bug 11". Nothing happens. The command just exists without any feedback.

kacpid is not a "real" program, it's a kernel thread. However, ubuntu-bug should give a proper error message for nonexisting PIDs.
