Bug#442081: bug-buddy: complains about missing --appname or --package arguments

[Mauro Torrez]

Package: bug-buddy
Version: 2.18.1-2
Severity: normal


When starting bug-buddy from the panel menu, it opens an error window 
complaining that "Either --appname or --package arguments are 
required". This shouldn't happen since you cannot pass arguments from 
the menu. Unsurprisingly, the same dialog appears when invoking from a 
terminal with neither --appname nor --package arguments.

When you invoke it with the --appname argument, it complains about a 
missing --pid argument.

I suggest to either remove "Bug Buddy" from the menu or, better yet, 
present an assistant to the user which lets him/her select the package 
or a list of running applications to choose from, otherwise the menu 
item is just as unuseful as can be...

Steps to reproduce it:
invoke bug-buddy without said arguments, or try to open it from the 
gnome menu.

Cheers.
