I wanted to see if I can fix bug #1269840, but couldn't get to the source code, because neither -v nor -h options provide any pointers. I don't have have to learn bash to decipher logic in /usr/bin/ubuntu-bug It will help if the script could report used backend on -v or -h or some --debug or --verbose mode output.
