I cannot reproduce this on current Natty. Did that happen right after an upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04? If not, what exactly did you do to trigger this crash?

I already tried

  LANG=ko_KR.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= PYTHONPATH= /usr/share/apport/apport-gtk -c

and also with ru_RU.UTF-8, and also with other arguments (like --help), but these all work for me. It might be a crash which was happening right before the upgrade to Natty?
