[Bug 1802521] Re: ubuntu-bug hangs when Cancel button pressed

[Benjamin Drung]

Thanks for reporting the bug and providing an easy step to reproduce.

I could kind-of reproduce this behavior in a Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) VM:
Run "ubuntu-bug gnome-terminal" and then click directly on abort. The
windows froze for several seconds (but not mintues) until it closes. On
Ubuntu 22.04 it hang for around three seconds. On Ubuntu 18.04 it hang
for around 4 seconds.

I don't know why the window hanged for several minutes on your system
(maybe your system is significant slower or you hit another bug as well.

Apport should instantly hide the window and stop the collection.

Title:
  ubuntu-bug hangs when Cancel button pressed

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I ran `ubuntu-bug gnome-terminal`, but then realized a second or so
  later that's not what I had intended to do. I therefore clicked the
  Cancel button on the "Collecting problem information / Information is
  being collected that may help the developers fix the problem you
  report." dialog that had popped up. It hung, i.e., the back-and-forth
  progress bar in the dialog stopped moving, and nothing else happened,
  and it's still sitting several minutes later doing nothing.
