Looks good, thank you

Is there any reason for removing all system error reporting programs? I ran this script a while ago, but I had a crash on my server while I was away, and realized that the convenience of the old error window would have been helpful. I believe they can be set to only collect information and not send it to Canonical. So for now, I have only reinstalled apport and apport-gtk

Many thanks!!!
