NAME

ubuntu-bug - file a bug against an Ubuntu package

SYNOPSIS

ubuntu-bug packagename

ubuntu-bug /path/to/program

ubuntu-bug PID

ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_program.crash

DESCRIPTION

ubuntu-bug is a command-line interface for filing bugs in Ubuntu.

To report a bug against a particular binary package, supply it as an argument:

 ubuntu-bug firefox

You can also supply a path to a program instead of a package name for the same result:

 ubuntu-bug /usr/bin/gnome-screensaver

In order to add more information to the bug report that could help the developers to fix the problem, you can also specify a process ID instead of (or in addition to) a package name:

 $ pidof gnome-terminal
 5139
 $ ubuntu-bug 5139

As a special case, to report a bug against the Linux kernel, you do not need to use the full package name (such as linux-image-2.6.28-4-generic); you can just use

 ubuntu-bug linux

to report a bug against the currently running kernel.

Finally, you can use ubuntu-bug to report a crash report:

 ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_bin_bash.1000.crash

ubuntu-bug detects whether KDE or Gnome is running and calls apport-gtk or apport-qt accordingly. If neither is available, or the session does not run under X11, it calls apport-cli for a command-line client.
