[Bug 1858202] [NEW] apport dialog with "text" text or without a description

[Raul Dias]

Public bug reported:

When using ubuntu-bug, the dialog box is shown twice asking for using confirmation.
However, the text in the dialog is garbage.  It is "text" instead of a real description.
If I have to bet, "text" was a placeholder not replaced by the real content.
See the screenshot.
