The error you are seeing is about an error in the cloud_archive.py
general apport hook and it doesn't actually prevent you from filing a
bug report about miredo-server or any other uninstalled package.
Additionally, the Traceback doesn't occur with the 14.04 version of the
package hook.
** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid

Sometimes the bug in an uninstalled package needs to be reported
because the package failed to install. If you don't allow that,
please show a message without the above backtrace.
