This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.6.3-0ubuntu1
---------------
apport (2.6.3-0ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low
* New upstream release. Changes since our previous snapshot:
- debian.py: Only reject reports with useless stack traces if the report
actually has a stack trace at all.
- debian.py: Fix UTF-8 string handling. Thanks Ritesh Raj Sarraf.
- debian.py: Fix crash on broken "Package" fields, as generated by current
Debian/Ubuntu dkms package.
- data/apport: Call fsync when writing upstart crash reports.
- report.py, add_gdb_info(): Handle libnih's assertion messages.
(LP: #997359)
- apport-gtk, apport-kde: Don't provide an option to restart a crashed
application when the crash occurred in a thread (LP: #1033902).
- apport-retrace: Disallow option -C without option -S. Thanks Kyle
Nitzsche.
- fileutils.py, mark_report_upload(): Refresh the .upload stamps if a
previous version of the report was already uploaded, but another
instance of the problem happened since then. Thanks Brian Murray. (LP:
#1084296)
- Ignore implausibly low addresses when computing
StacktraceAddressSignature. These are usually artifacts from gdb when
not having debug symbols, and having too many of them prevents proper
client-side duplicate detection and proper bucketing in daisy.
(LP: #1084996)
- fileutils.py: Ignore .desktop files with NoDisplay=true. (LP: #1048524)
* debian/tests/control: Run tests as root, just like before switching our
autopkgtests to run as user "ubuntu" by default. This enables a couple of
extra tests, and avoids some confusion because the distro and the user
name are identical.
* data/package-hooks/source_linux-nexus7.py: Fix PEP-8 error.

Title:
Application thread crash shows application crash error alert
Status in Apport crash detection/reporting:
Fix Committed
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[IMPACT]
When an application thread crashes, Apport shows an alert that says
the entire application has crashed.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker#app-crash> The alert includes
the option to relaunch the application, even though it is still
running.
This is confusing. It also means Ubuntu 12.04 users are exposed to
more error alerts than they should be, because there is no option to
ignore similar errors in future. The alert that is supposed to appear
instead <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker#thread> includes a
checkbox to ignore future thread crashes in that application version.
