Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport-retrace

hggdh@xango:/var/crash$ apport-retrace bogus
ERROR: bogus is neither an existing report file nor a Launchpad bug numer
hggdh@xango:/var/crash$

last word on message should be 'number'.

Additionally I think the bad parameter should be enclosed in quotes to ease on understanding.

Tentative patch follows:

     SIGABRT, too (test case for bug #92029).
   * bin/apport: Move check for ignoring SIGABRT below the core dump file
     writing for non-packaged binaries. (LP: #92029)

     - Remove titles from the progress windows to comply with Gnome HIG and not
       repeat the text content.
     - Improve wording a bit.
     - LP: #92114
   * gtk/apport-gtk{,.glade}: Fix signal handler name of the Cancel button in
