Title:
  wishlist: a version of ubuntu-bug for console mode when the GUI fails

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've got a GUI failure in my Raring system.  I can log into a console
  session, but not a graphical one.  But I cannot report the bug on that
  system because ubuntu-bug requires Firefox to be runnable.

  So I'm going to have to report the problem on a different system, and
  hope the readers understand that the logs that are automatically
  attached do not apply to the bug.

  A console version would make sense for this.  It's not clear to me
  that I can file a bug directly in launchpad without going through
  ubuntu-bug, but I'll try that first.
