[Bug 1067507] Re: grub-installer crash with segfault

[papukaija]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is missing. Please follow
these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that
can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

Now open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit.
If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will
automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more
efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
