2012-04-27 14:29:01 Matthew Paul Thomas description apport 2.0.1-0ubuntu6, Ubuntu 12.04 1. Encounter a crash that Apport already knows about (either a bug pattern or an apport-duplicates record). 2. In the error alert, check "Send an error report to help fix this problem", and choose "Continue". What happens: * A "Problem already known" alert appears, saying "This problem was already reported in the bug report displayed in the web browser. Please check if you can add any further information that might be helpful for the developers." * A Launchpad bug report page opens in a Web browser. What should happen: No alert, and no Launchpad bug report. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker#details>: "If you choose to send an error report, the alert should disappear immediately. Data should be collected (if it hasn’t been already), and reports should be sent in the background, with *no* progress or success/failure feedback." If this isn't merely a quirk on my system, I think this warrants an SRU. [Impact] Auto-opening Launchpad Web pages for millions of users of 12.04 LTS who don't even know what Launchpad is. apport 2.0.1-0ubuntu6, Ubuntu 12.04 1.
