Added WORKAROUND on filing crash reports on Launchpad in stable releases as per LP#994921

- Note 1) even when enabled, apport will not upload crash reports to Launchpad for a stable release (this is deliberate, see [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/994921|bug #994921]]). Instead, crash reports are uploaded to [[http://errors.ubuntu.com]].

+ /!\ Even when enabled, apport will not upload crash reports to Launchpad for a stable release. For more on this please see [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/994921|bug #994921]]. Instead, crash reports are uploaded to [[http://errors.ubuntu.com]]. To have a bug report filed on Launchpad anyways, one may open the following file via a command line: {{{
+ gksudo gedit /etc/apport/crashdb.conf
+ }}} and change: {{{
+ 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],
+ }}} to: {{{
+ # 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],
+ }}}
+ Save, close, and try to file the crash report again via: {{{
+ ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash
- Note 2) apport will appear to upload a crash report, but only actually does so if whoopsie is installed. Whoopsie is installed by default for users of ubuntu-desktop, but for users of alternative desktops, or for server users, whoopsie has to be installed manually with ''apt-get install whoopsie''. See [[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-meta/+bug/1001630|bug #1001630]] for details.
