Thanks for reporting this bug. This looks to actually be a bug in
hookutils.py in the apport package:
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/hookutils.py", line 135, in
attach_conffiles
if contents == '[deleted]' or contents.startswith('[inaccessible'):
TypeError: startswith first arg must be bytes or a tuple of bytes, not str
I will refile it there and mark it high priority.
