The PyQt bindings for python3 have dropped the QString class in favor of the native unicode string type introduced in python 3. The KDE apport frontend will need to be ported to the new python3 native string API.

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.5.1-0ubuntu7

---------------
apport (2.5.1-0ubuntu7) quantal-proposed; urgency=low

  * bin/apport-bug: Explicitly set the PATH to that of ENV_SUPATH in
    /etc/login.defs and unset ENV and CDPATH. We need do this so that confined
    applications using ubuntu-browsers.d/ubuntu-integration cannot abuse the
    environment to escape AppArmor confinement via this script (LP: #1045986).
    This can be removed once AppArmor supports environment filtering
    (LP: 1045985)

apport (2.5.1-0ubuntu6) quantal; urgency=low

  * data/general/ubuntu.py: handle the case where a log file is compressed
    when reviewing package installation failures (LP: #917903)

apport (2.5.1-0ubuntu5) quantal; urgency=low

  * Use Python string rather than QString, LP: #1028984
