This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.1.1-0ubuntu1
---------------
apport (2.1.1-0ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
[ Martin Pitt ]
* debian/control: Update Vcs-Bzr: for quantal branch.
* data/general-hooks/ubuntu.py: Do not assume that all reports have a
ProblemType field. This will not be the case for updating a bug with
"apport-collect". (LP: #1004029)
* New upstream release:
- launchpad.py: When closing a bug as a duplicate, copy some well-known
tags to the master bug. Thanks Brian Murray.
- launchpad.py: Set importance of Python crash reports to "Medium" by
default, similar to signal crashes. Thanks Brian Murray.
- hookutils.py: Add attach_default_grub() convenience function from the
grub2 package hook so it can be used by other packages. Thanks Brian
Murray.
- launchpad.py: Make Launchpad bug subscription user/team configurable:
The initial subscriber after filing a bug can be set with the
"initial_subscriber" crashdb option, and the team which gets subscribed
after retracing with "triaging_team". (LP: #980726)
- report.py: Do not change the SourcePackage: field if the binary package
is not installed and does not exist. This fixes source package hooks to
actually work in some cases where source and binary package names
overlap. (part of LP: #993810)
- apport-gtk, apport-kde: Avoid collecting information twice in "bug
update" mode. This caused a crash in cases where the source package in a
bug report does not correspond to an installed binary package.
(LP: #993810)
[ Brian Murray ]
* data/general-hooks/ubuntu.py: block reporting of package install failures
with error regarding 'not a debian format archive'

Title:
apport-collect broken (with source pkg name != binary pkg name?)
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “apport” source package in Precise:
Triaged
Bug description:
Running apport-collect on a bug against alsa-driver results in the following
stack trace. My guess is that this has something to do with that the source
package name is "alsa-driver" but there is no binary package with that name
(it's named "alsa-base", among others).
Running apport-collect on a bug against "pulseaudio" succeeds. There is both
a source and a binary package named "pulseaudio".
No packages found matching alsa-driver.

SRU TEST CASE
=============
- Subscribe to a bug which has a "linux" or an "alsa-driver" task. Martin
Pitt used bug 973787 and bug 1005849 for testing.
- Run "apport-collect 973787" (or whichever bug you subscribed to)
- In the current precise version you will see a crash traceback and the
Apport window stays empty with a spinner.
- With this fixed version there is no crash and the Apport window shows a
rich variety of collected information.
