Happened again. Bug did not seem to submit report once more. Screenshot as per comment #2 Report was produced which I managed to see the details but sending report did not return a bug ID.
See this from terminal where I carried out action 1a in comment #3. Still no bug ID. dave@dave-ThinkPad-T410:~$ ls -alt /var/crash total 21384 -rw-r----- 1 gdm whoopsie 21887221 Mar 2 23:32 _usr_bin_gnome-shell.121.crash drwxrwsrwt 2 root whoopsie 4096 Mar 2 23:32 . drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Jul 25 2018 .. dave@dave-ThinkPad-T410:~$ sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_usr_bin_gnome-shell.121.crash [sudo] password for dave: dave@dave-ThinkPad-T410:~$ ls -alt /var/crash total 21596 drwxrwsrwt 2 root whoopsie 4096 Mar 3 07:22 . -rw------- 1 whoopsie whoopsie 0 Mar 3 07:22 _usr_bin_gnome-shell.121.uploaded -rw-r--r-- 1 root whoopsie 0 Mar 3 07:22 _usr_bin_gnome-shell.121.upload -rw-r----- 1 gdm whoopsie 22105281 Mar 3 07:18 _usr_bin_gnome-shell.121.crash drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Jul 25 2018 .. dave@dave-ThinkPad-T410:~$ See this from terminal where I carried out action 1b in comment #3.
