Title:
  ubuntu-bug never (any longer) opens browser window

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS, X11 gnome session.

  For some reason ubuntu-bug <packagename> no longer opens a browser
  window, so it is not possible to enter useful bug detauls, or even
  know the bug number.

  After prompting whether or not to Send the report, clicking "Send"
  just closes appport and nothing else ever happens.  The exit status of
  "ubuntu-bug" is zero.

  This worked fine before, but it has been many months since I tried to
  submit a bug.

  strace shows many stat calls on plausible browser paths, including the one that is correct (/usr/bin/firefox, which returned a successful stat call).  I'll attach the trace output from
     
     strace -f -o /tmp/strace.log ubuntu-bug apport
