I have sent 4-5 bug reports through the bug reporter but only got email reply for 2 of them. And if i remember correctly those 2 times bug reporter showed a tiny window with a tick mark and some text(cant remembebr exactly, only read the first time).
It stopped working completely. The bug reporter doesn't open any more when unity crashes. Using arch linux, crashes happen on both nvidia(binary driver) and intel cards(optimus laptop). Frequent causes for my crushes; Object selector for public variables causes crash almost every time i try to it. Anchoring popup for ui elements are same too but this causes crash every time i try to use it. Edit: Found the reason why bug reporter stopped working. I did a system cleanup and deleted libpng12.so.0 couse nothing was depending on it. But it seams its needed for bug reporter.
Yeah, I also reported this, but I found workaround - probably you're double-clicking on the object which causes crash. Instead you should just select object with 1 left-click and then close selector window.
Like you said sometimes that works, but not always. At least for me. Btw after opening the selector if i select another gameobject from hierarchy without selecting anything from selector Unity crashes too.
