Bug Description

When using ubuntu-bug to file a bug report manually, I get redirected to a dead end page in Launchpad when I am already logged in to the site. The expected behavior would be to reach a page that lets you file a bug report. I am attaching the usual information manually. The page dispalys the text You are already logged in.

It's probably redirecting to a private page. What's the exact URL that it redirects to, please?

Sorry for the late reply.
It is redirecting to this URL:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ceph/+filebug/9f34119a-a3bb-11e8-a96e-68b5996a96c8/+login
That page simply displays:

You are already logged in

It just happened again when I tried to view my subscriptions from the link in the bug email.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1769212/+subscriptions

This link took me to:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1769212/+subscriptions/+login
Which displays the already logged in page. I haven't been to the launchpad site in a few weeks so I am assuming my browser auto-logged me in as I have the credentials saved in Firefox. Removing the +login at the end of the URL and then navigating to it displays the proper page.
