Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

$ ubuntu-bug "/var/crash/_usr_bin_apt-get.0.crash"

then a dialog pops up with "No such file or directory" - yes, the file from above _does_ exist:

ls -l /var/crash/_usr_bin_apt-get.0.crash
-rw------- 1 root root 689906 2009-08-15 15:41 /var/crash/_usr_bin_apt-get.0.crash

Result: i cannot submit my apt-get crash.

Same issue here with Kubuntu Karmic i386. It always appears on startup. I don't get an apt-get crash, but there is an _usr_bin_python2.6.1000.crash file and _sbin_usplash.0.crash file in /var/crash/
