Hi,
That's somewhat similar to the mail I sent some time ago about the
standard response when the bug lacks a .crash.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses still lists
"Missing a back trace
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. Please try to obtain a backtrace following the
instructions at [WWW] http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and
upload the backtrace (as an attachment) to the bug report. This will
greatly help us in tracking down your problem."
Is that reply still required? It would make sense to use the "Missing a
crash report or having a .crash attachment" one which guide the user to
use apport rather than having to deal with gdb to get the informations
