** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: apport
+ SRU information:
+ --------------------------
+ Impact: Causes unhandled exceptions in Apport when trying to report a crash 
against a program which does not belong to a package any more. (See bug trail 
for common examples: (1) file disappeared between jaunty and karmic, and (2) 
program is a hardlink created in postinst).
  
- No info.
+ Fix: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eapport-
+ hackers/apport/trunk/revision/1629 ; this does not magically  cause the
+ original crash report to be reportable, but gives a proper error message
+ instead of just crashing Apport.
+ 
+ Regression potential: Handling this situation in obsolete_packages()
+ could just cause a similar problem to appear in a later code path. This
+ would not mean a regression, since the crash is unreportable either way.
+ So I don't see a real regression potential  here.
