Sorry, I don't live in America and I don't know who Jerry Springer is. I hope it's a comedy show, but I'm not even interested enough to run it through Wikipedia. Anyway, I admit that I am too easily annoyed sometimes.

Back on the bug itself, I was interested enough to investigate the fix reported earlier in this thread, and I can report that it works, though the description was incomplete. I did it from the Main Menu preferences, where a right click on the "Bug Report Tool" allows you to access the properties and replace the existing "bug-buddy" with the recommended command:

firefox https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug

However, the new command bug-buddy caught my interest. Looks like an interesting idea--but a command to report bugs should not in itself be buggy. Based on the error message, it apparently requires at least a package-name, but according to bug-buddy -? there are no required parameters.

<sarcasm>Gee, do you think I should open a bug on bug-buddy?</sarcasm>
