Public bug reported:

Ubuntu-bug will not let you report a bug if you have upgraded a package
using external sources.

Package zoom was so old the server rejected it.   Downloaded the new
.deb file from upstream source.  Now I can't report a bug on zoom that
the package is so far out of date.

Similarly, if a package is so broken you can't install it, it won't let
you report a bug.

Just note that you can't collect the data and do your job.
