Comment 4 for bug 1878973

Segfaults attracted to me?    That's possible.  Or, I'm the only ubuntu
user that actually reports bugs.   It's lonely out here.

More seriously, I think there's a problem with the apport system more
generally.    What's supposed to happen after a crash is a window pops
up upon log-in, offering to send the report.  That happens.  I click
'yes'.  Then after some grinding and a couple extra files created in
/var/crash ... nothing.   What's supposed to happen is firefox pops up
and offers the usual process with all the attachments.  What actually
happens is nothing.    I go run ubuntu-bug manually, file the stuff,
attach the crash report manually.

The only clue I have to offer is:   At install time, I do NOT install
the restricted third party options, and I go for the 'minimal
install'.   As opposed to all the desktop utility stuff.   I'm guessing
there's something taken out of the minimal install that apport needs to
launch the browser.

But it's sort of confidence sapping, to see accumulated items in
/var/crash, to be asked upon each reboot to file a report, then agree,
then have it... simply just nothing.
