Public bug reported:
python3-apport uses the deprecated module imp. This causes to emitting a
deprecation warning when run python3 with the -Walways option, and even
to changing a traceback when run python3 with the -Werror option.
Example:
```
$ python3 -Walways -c '1/0'
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py:13: DeprecationWarning: the imp
module is deprecated in favour of importlib; see the module's documentation for
alternative uses
import fnmatch, glob, traceback, errno, sys, atexit, locale, imp
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero
```
```
$ python3 -Werror -c '1/0'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero
Error in sys.excepthook:

Original exception was:

The -Werror option can be used for catching possible issues, and
additional output from apport spoils the result.

The solution is to silence DeprecationWarning for `import imp`:
import warnings
with warnings.catch_warnings():
warnings.simplefilter('ignore', DeprecationWarning)
import imp
