Edward with regards to the repeatability of this issue apport modifies
the .crash file during the collection process. In ui.py we can see that
collect_info is only called if the crash file is missing Dependencies
and that bug patterns are checked as a part of collect_info. So only
the first run

Thanks, Brian! Looking back, I sure was scratching my head a lot. I
never knew this important fact:
apport modifies the .crash file during the collection process.
Aha.

While this may fix it for DpkgTerminalLog, the fix is not generic so if
another attachment were to be a bytes object and a bug pattern were
written for that attachment we would get the same crash. I think this
code in apport/report.py needs to modified:
if c.hasChildNodes() and
Version 2.4-0ubuntu1 sounds like it fixes this:

* data/general/ubuntu.py: in trim_log deal with the fact that
DpkgTerminalLog is a bytes object and convert it to a string object
Since I can't reproduce the crash, I couldn't exactly test that this bug

Once again, I can't make this happen consistently with the same
crashfile. Guessing from the names and times, the last two commenters,
like me, probably had apport crash while reporting bug 1024016. A
second attempt on that crashfile ran without problem. So I guess
there's probably not much use
So, this looks like a python3 porting issue. According to comments like
this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5184483/python-typeerror-on-regex
what's needed is to call 're.compile' with a 'b' flag, for bytes. I'm
not familiar with the code enough, to know whether we just can sprinkle
Got this as apport was reporting an install problem for package compiz-

In case it can be of any use the install problem mentioned in #6 above
is now reported in bug 1019145 - package compiz-gnome 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu3
failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/gconf/schemas
/compiz-ccp.schemas', which is also in package libcompizconfig0
I tested apport today with the crashfile I uploaded here, that
originally triggered this bug for me. There was no problem, with
apport-bug or apport-cli. The version of apport hasn't changed in the
meantime. So I've gotten lost in the weeds.
Does anyone else have a crashfile that will

Can confirm the same thing here in Ubunt u12.10 Gnome-Shell 3.5. This
came with the current update at about 20:53 CET. And in addition to this
problem with apport, a second error occured referring to evince. I just
reported this error referring to evince. And perhaps, these two things
have to do

Here is a crash file that triggered this apport problem.
It was a dpkg run where conflicting packages provided the same file.
Offhand, the crash file has a terminal log of the dpkg session, a lot of
text with control characters embedded in it. I suppose these ^M's could
be causing a problem of
Well, in addition to the speculation in my last comment being a pretty
weak idea, anyway, other people managed to report that crash, bug
1017289, with apport. And I see that my crash file has lots of older
bits of log in it, too. So I'll retreat to a firmer I don't know.
