** Description changed:

  The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem
  regarding apport.  This problem was most recently seen with package
  version 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.10, the problem page at
  https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/290470c9cf5f278596966c386aac31e70a49988e
  contains more details, including versions of packages affected,
  stacktrace or traceback, and individual crash reports.
  
  Traceback (most recent call last):
-   File "/usr/share/apport/apport", line 451, in <module>
-     options = parse_arguments()
-   File "/usr/share/apport/apport", line 396, in parse_arguments
-     parser.print_usage()

  AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'write'
+ 
+ After working on https://bugs.launchpad.net/apport/+bug/1732962, the error 
tracker started throwing the error above.
+ it appears that print_usage is called and throwing an error because in this 
context (called with core_pattern) apport doesn't have an stdout or stderr. 
after looking at traces it seems the kernel is adding 'deleted' to the name of 
the process which cause argument parsing to fail.
+ 
+ The fix below from bdmurray seems to fix it.

+ 
+ There is report of this issue in Focal, Bionic and xenial
