Hi,

Where's this apport-collect? I don't have this command in my Ubuntu installation, I'm using Intrepid.
What were you trying to do when hit this problem?

Thanks,

Úrsula

Hallo,

"apport-collect" is in the directory /usr/bin.
It's inside the package "apport", version 0.142
I'm using/testing Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 (developer branch).

Linux 2.6.28-8-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 5 21:49:36 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

Hi Lodur,

It seems this is an apport bug, not Launchpad. So, I've redirected it to apport package for it to be properly handled.

Thanks for reporting this!

So arguably apport-collect shouldn't crash like this, but just print the error message.

It seems that you didn't actually log into Launchpad and chose "change anything"?

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 0.145

---------------
apport (0.145) jaunty; urgency=low

  * apport/crashdb_impl/launchpad.py: Fix typo in previous upload.
  * debian/local/apport-collect: Do not crash on
    launchpadlib.errors.HTTPError, but give a proper error message and point
    out that this script needs "change anything" privileges. (LP: #338201)
  * apport_python_hook.py: Fix crash for already existing reports, and make
    behaviour equivalent to bin/apport: Silently exit for existing unseen
    crash report, and overwrite existing seen crash report. Add test cases.
    (LP: #323714)
  * general-hooks/automatix.py: Refuse to send bug reports when ultamatix is
    installed.
