Well, this logic already exists in apport:
if 'dpkg: error' in dupe_sig and line.startswith(' '):
if 'trying to overwrite' in line:
conflict_pkg = re.search('in package (.*) ', line)
if conflict_pkg and not
apport.packaging.is_distro_package(conflict_pkg.group(1)):
report['UnreportableReason'] = _('An Ubuntu package
has a file conflict with a package that is not a genuine Ubuntu package')
add_tag(report, 'package-conflict')
