This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.3-0ubuntu1
---------------
apport (2.3-0ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- launchpad.py: Rework test suite to not use Launchpad's +storeblob
facility at all any more. It almost never works on staging and is
horribly slow. Fake the bug creation from a blob by manually creating
the comment and attachments ourselves, and just assume that storeblob
works on production. Also change the structure to allow running every
test individually.
- crash-digger: Add --crash-db option to specify a non-default crash
database name. (LP: #1003506)
- apport-gtk: Add --hanging option to specify the process ID of a hanging
application. If the user chooses to report this error, apport will
terminate the pid with SIGABRT, otherwise it will send SIGKILL. The
normal core pipe handler will be used to process the resulting report
file, with a .hanging file in /var/crash to separate these from regular
crashes.
- apport: Also treat a binary as modified if the /proc/pid/exe symlink
does not point to an existing file any more. (LP: #984944)
- Fix PEP-8 violations picked up by latest pep8 checker.
- ui.py: Do not ignore certain exceptions during upload which are not
likely to be a network error.
- launchpad.py: Recongize Launchpad projects for bug query and marking
operations. (LP: #1003506)
- packaging-apt-dpkg.py: Fix get_source_tree() to work with apt sandboxes.
- apport-retrace: Turn StacktraceSource generation back on, now that it
works with the current sandboxing.
- launchpad.py: Ensure that upload chunk size does not underrun.
(LP: #1013334)
- apport_python_hook: Fix UnicodeEncodeError crash with Python 2 for
exceptions with non-ASCII characters. (LP: #972436)
- test_ui_kde.py: Fix occasional test failure in test_1_crash_details if
the application ends before the "is progress bar visible" check is done.
