** Description changed:

- I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 dev with apport 2.12.5-0ubuntu1 and after
- installing apport with "sudo apt-get install apport" and executng it as
- "apport-collect 1185521" I'm getting the following message: "You need to
- run 'sudo apt-get install python-apport' for apport-collect to work.".
- Im now thinking about if python-apport should be a dependency of apport
- or not. apport-bug seems to be working without it but apport-collect is
- always provided with apport. This is a reason for and a reason against
- such a decision.
+ Steps to reproduce:
+ 1. Install Ubuntu 17.10
+ 2. Try to launch `apport-collect 1712200`
+ 
+ Expected results:
+ apport-collect works out-the-box and collected corresponding info
+ 
+ Actual results:
+ apport-collect does not work and shows message:
+ 
+ "You need to run 'sudo apt-get install python-apport' for apport-collect
+ to work."
+ 
+ Note: manual installation of python-apport adds 15 MB of new packages,
+ after that apport-collect works as expected.

** Summary changed:

- apport seems to be missing a dependency
+ apport-collect is not functional until manual installation of python-apport
