Bug Description

Using Kubuntu 16.04, an attempt to report a bug against libxft-dev package by running "ubuntu-bug libxft-dev" first results to a dialog that says "Collecting problem information" and then another dialog on top of that which says "text" and nothing else. The dialog has Yes/No/Cancel buttons and title "Apport". See the attachment for a screenshot.

So far I have always selected Cancel and then I get the "Ubuntu -- Apport" dialog with text "Send problem report to the developers?" and a scrollable list of information. I have not attempted to send the bug so far.

I can reproduce the problem with the same command.

When I created this bug report with "ubuntu-bug apport" the problem did not occur.
