Following the last two reports on the mailing list

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/1050656

and

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/1050221

the "Lost Something?" launchpad website that is presented to users who 
have no priviledges for accessing private bugs seems to be misidentified 
by users as error or bug or broken link of launchpad.

May be the message should be a bit clearer than the actual one for users 
that are guided from a dublicate entry of their own report to such a page.

Given scenario here:

User report - > Apport-retracing identification as a dub of a already 
known private bug  and automatically closing as such -> user 
misidentifies the "Lost Something" page as broken link  and dedub their 
report wrongly
