Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

I've started /usr/share/apport/apport-kde from the shell and after it told me that the bug was already known (and opened it in the browser (Firefox)), apport-kde kept "running"/blocking.

I've pressed Ctrl-C and this is the Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/apport/apport-kde", line 461, in <module>
    UserInterface = MainUserInterface()
  File "/usr/share/apport/apport-kde", line 175, in __init__
    sys.exit(self.run_argv())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 545, in run_argv
    return self.run_crashes()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 155, in run_crashes
    self.run_crash(f)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 263, in run_crash
    if self.handle_duplicate():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 979, in handle_duplicate
    self.open_url(self.report['BugPatternURL'])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 764, in open_url
    (pid, status) = os.wait()
KeyboardInterrupt

I remember this happening in another situation, probably when reporting a bug in general and it got fixed.
Smells like there's some refactorization needed to handle spawning the browser in the same way throughout the app.

There is no support on such deprecated version; that one has died long time ago.
