Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

When launching apport-collect without parameters or with the -h|--help option, it returns: Usage: apport-gtk [options] [symptom|pid|package|program path|.apport/.crash file]

apport-gtk does not exist on the default desktop installation and may confuse users.

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 1.13-0ubuntu1

---------------
apport (1.13-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - Add "unkillable_shutdown" script to collect information about processes
      which are still running after sending SIGTERM to them. This can be
      hooked into e. g. /etc/init.d/sendsigs on Debian/Ubuntu systems.
    - apport_python_hook.py: Directly check /etc/default/apport instead of
      querying packaging.enabled(), to avoid importing lots of modules for
      non-packaged scripts. Thanks Stuart Colville! (LP: #528355)
    - Fix SegV parser to notice walking off the stack during "call" or "ret"
      (LP: #531672).
    - Fix --help output for bug updating mode (invocation as apport-collect or
      apport-update-bug). (LP: #504116)
    - Fix bug escalation tagging, thanks to Brian Murray.
    - Fix option processing when being invoked as apport-bug. Thanks to Daniel
      Hahler for the patch! (LP: #532944)
  * debian/apport.install: Install unkillable_shutdown.
