Title:
  autocompletion for ubuntu-bug

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My assumpion is that the autocompletion for ubuntu-bug uses "ls" in some point of the code.
  I use an alias "ls -lha1rt --color=always" for standard ls
  So when press tab, the command line contains a lot of the following lines:

  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/-rw-r--r--: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/1: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/root: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/root: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/9.6K: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/Oct: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/23: No such file or directory
  egrep: /usr/share/apport/symptoms/2012: No such file or directory

  I suggest to put one of the following:

  - \ls (\ at the biggining avoids the aliases)
  - use "*" istead of ls
  - 2>/dev/null (ignore these errors)

  I checked the checkbox of security issue because the data showed migth
  be important. But I don't really know about that :)
