Bug Description
Binary package hint: apport
I needed to report an error about network and I did not know the name of the package. On the instructions for bug reporting I found this (https:/
"Filing a general bug against no particular package
If you're not sure which package is affected by the bug, type ubuntu-bug in the "Run Application" window and click Run. This will guide you through a series of questions to gather more information about the bug. "
1. ALT+F2
2. ubuntu-bug
3. Chose Other
Result: You need to specify a package or PIB...
This is in contradiction of what is in instruction page, and also I cannot enter the PIB or package name unless I entered it after I typed in ubuntu-one after alt+f2
