[Bug 415237] Re: Can't report KDE bugs

I ran strace -ff on kmenuedit and chose Help > Report Bug... . A child process does
  execve("/usr/share/apport/apport-kde", ["/usr/share/apport/apport-kde", "-f", "-p", "13908"], [/* 39 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

It's trying to run /usr/share/apport/apport-kde , but this doesn't exist
in my copy of Jaunty.  Either this Karmic package needs to be backported
to Jaunty, or KDE (I think libkdeui.so.5) modified to not invoke it.

As a workaround I tried making apport-kde a symlink to apport-qt.  Then
Help >Report Bug... makes a "Collecting problem information" dialog
appear, but it fails with "Package 13908 does not exist", so the
arguments to apport-qt are different.

As another workaround I tried installing the Karmic "apport-kde" package on Jaunty, but then Help > Report Bug... prints the error 
  Could not import module, is a package upgrade in progress? Error: cannot import name unicode_gettext
because it needs a newer apport module that provides this unicode_gettext() function.
