Bug Description
Sometimes some (non-KDE) application crashes, I get the notification by the crash handler (exclamation mark on orange background) and click on it. I get a window asking me with a checkbox whether I want to report a bug and whether to keep the application closed or restart it. I click restart and can see in the process list (htop) that apport-kde does some heavy lifting. After a while it is finished, but I never get pointed to the launchpad website, see a bugreport number or anything of that sort, which would indicate that apport-kde actually sent a report.
