  == Adding Apport Debug Information to an Existing Launchpad Bug ==
  
  If you have already reported a bug directly via Launchpad, but want to add additional debugging information via ''Apport'' to the bug report, you can do this by running the command `apport-collect bug_number` via "Run Application" or terminal window. If you are not the original reporter, please do not apport-collect to a bug report unless specifically asked of you by a developer or triager.  Running apport-collect when not asked creates spammy E-Mail traffic for those subscribed, clutters up the bug report with undesired attachments, and hinders the bug getting addressed quickly. Instead, please open a new report via ubuntu-bug.

+ == Adding Additional Attachments to an Existing Launchpad Bug ==
+ 
+ If you have reported a bug to Launchpad, and want to provide attachments in addition to that collected by ''Apport'', please ensure you do not use external posting sites (ex. pastebin) or post external hyperlinks. Instead, please post the information directly in a comment or as an attachment. If you are not the original reporter, and the problem is in the [[https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux|linux]] package, please do not post any attachments to the report. Instead, please report a new bug via ubuntu-bug.
