Title:
  Reproducable crash in apport-bug in Quantal Beta 2+

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I try to run "apport-bug" on Kubuntu Quantal Beta 2 Plus; I call it
  "Plus" because it is fully "apt-get dist-upgrade"d, and that includes
  update of both the entire KDE suite and python.

  The "apport-bug" program crashes consistently.  It opens a window, I
  choose "Other problem", click OK, choose "Other display-related
  problem", click OK, and the application crashes.

  (There is a peculiarity here:  I choose "Other problem", but this
  gives me the window for "Display" ....)

  The KDE crash handler attempts to build a report but gives up - "This
  crash information is not useful enough, do you want to try to improve
  it? You will need to install some debugging packages".  It says this,
  even after I did install the suggested debugging packages.  It
  finishes with a suggestion that I send the report manually - which
  suggestion I am following now.

  I have attached the partial report built by the crash handler.  I
  notice that it does not contain any information about installed
  packages, so I have collected a list of what I suppose is relevant.
  Essentially, it is Kubuntu Quantal Beta 2 as it looks today, October
  9th.
