Apport refuses to acknowledge 'Ignore future problems of this type' when ticked

[Aidan Fell]

Hello,

I have a very annoying bug with apport.

Every time at a random occasion when using Ubuntu, apport comes up with an annoying error that a system problem has been detected (something to do with colord). Now although there is nothing wrong with detecting an error with a system service - this is getting annoying. Apport refuses to acknowledge the option of 'Ignore future problems of this type'.

I am on 16.04.1 LTS, x86_64, apport version 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.5, and the bug is still here.

I have an unresolvable problem with hp printer, appearing only when I forget to switch printer on, and I want to ignore this forever.
