[Bug 1773087] Re: Remove python3-apport as dependency of xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg now has an apport hook. So in order of ubuntu-bug to work, it is necessary to have python3-apport installed, per LP: #1730035.

Jörn Heissler, as mentioned previously, apport (which python3-apport is a dependent of) is used to capture and process program crashes (e.g. xorg and related packages).

[Bug 1773087] Re: Remove python3-apport as dependency of xserver-xorg
It's perfectly fine if apport and python3-apport are installed by default. But I don't see how xserver-xorg actually depends on python3-apport. To quote from the Ubuntu Policy Manual: """ The Depends field should be used if the depended-on package is required for the depending package to provide a significant amount of functionality. The Depends field should also be used if the postinst, prerm or postrm scripts require the package to be present in order to run. Note, however, that the postrm cannot rely on any non-essential packages to be present during the purge phase.
