It uses python-apt to determine the "Origin" of the package. This is a
field which is set in the "Release" file of an apt source. See "grep
Origin: /var/lib/apt/lists/*_Release".
Apport does this in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-
packages/apport/packaging.py, is_distro_package() with python-apt. You
can run this test independently with
python -c 'import apt; print apt.Cache()["xterm"].candidateOrigin'
what does this command print for you for the package in question? Can
you reproduce the error with a .crash file that you have, with
"/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk -c /path/to/crashfile"? (backup the
original crash file first, since apport modifies it).
Thanks!
** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
