Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

When executing "ubuntu-bug" or "apport-bug" on the console, it starts to ask questions.
1) I select "other problem".
2) Apports opens another window "collecting problem information"
3) In the next question window I select "other display-related problem"
4) Apport exits

Additionaly it logs
"""
/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/lazr/restfulclient/__init__.py:19: UserWarning: Module launchpadlib was already imported from /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/launchpadlib/__init__.py, but /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6 is being added to sys.path
  import pkg_resources
"""
*before* asking the questions.

I'd expect something useful to happen instead of step 4 above. E.g. asking which package is affected, opening bugs.launchpad.net with the already given information filled into a bugreporting for, something like that.

"We believe this issue has been fixed in current versions of apport. Please create a new report, should you still be experiencing it." would have been more polite.

Adding "Sorry for ignoring this report for five years." would have been even better.
