[Bug 1821412] [NEW] "System program problem" report button does nothing

[Brian Murray]

Public bug reported:

Test Case
---------
sudo xeyes &
sudo kill -11 $PID from above
receive crash notification
click "Report problem..."
Observe nothing happen

Research
--------
crash.c calls the following '/usr/bin/pkexec /usr/share/apport/apport-gtk' and this works if I call it manually so something must be awry in crash.c.
