ah, I have to attach the file _after_ submitting the bug. Come on people; think _usability_. Geez.

Anyway, I've since dismissed the popup that told me where the crash dump is, and don't remember the path. Why didn't the thing that generated the dump also mail it for me? Why do I even have to do this?

Oh, all right, I'll scour my entire f***ing filesystem to find it ...

Ha. I found it, after expending effort searching. OK, fine.

So I uploaded it. Being 14Mb, it naturally took a while. Pity there was no feedback from Bon Echo, other than a tiny message in the status bar. But then: _the upload failed_. And why? Because I forgot to type in a description. And as we all know: "An attachment requires a description."

People, THIS IS INSANE. If you want to improve Ubuntu, you must MAKE IT EASY FOR US TO HELP YOU. I am a professional programmer. I know my way around computers. I love Free Software. But you know what? This has wasted too much of my time already. I'm not including the crash dump. I hope someone else has already reported this bug. And if not? Then I'll put up with the flakiness. I give up.
