Bug Description
Although on #985049 it saiys it is fixed, I can still reproduce it by having a phone num,ber with a "+" sign at the beginning in my /etc/passwd entry for my user. I was able to fix this and submit this patch by simply removing the "+" sign.
Without that step the below sympthom happens:
~$ apport-bug apport-gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/

And this is on a fully upgraded 13.04 Raring (upgraded 10 days ago).
