Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

For mythbuntu PPA packages we provide a crashDB to file the bug against the 'mythbuntu' project. We're still getting the apport retracer attached to those bugs too (even though it's not likely to do much of anything useful).

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 1.10-0ubuntu1

---------------
apport (1.10-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - Add a mode for updating an existing problem report to ui.py
      (-u/--update). This is similar to the Ubuntu specific "apport-collect"
      tool, but implemented the right way now: In particular, this has access
      to the UI and thus can use interactive hooks (LP: #385811) and show you
      what is being sent for confirmation/cancelling (LP: #371827)

    - apport-bug: If invoked as "apport-collect" or "apport-update-bug" (i. e.
      through a symlink), run apport in update mode (-u <number>). This
      provides a convenient no-options command line program. Please note that
      setup.py does not currently install such a symlink. Update the
      apport-bug manpage accordingly.

    - launchpad.py: Use new login_with() to clean up code, and specify allowed
      access levels (WRITE_PRIVATE is the only sensible one anyway).
      (LP: #410205)

    - New hookutils functions:
      + xsession_errors (match lines from ~/.xsession-errors)
      + shared_libraries (determine which libraries a binary links with)
      + links_with_shared_library (test if a binary links with a particular
        library)

    - New CrashDatabase API: get_affected_packages(), can_update(), is_reporter()

    - Rename CrashDatabase.update() to update_traces().

    - Add CrashDatabase.update() for adding all new fields of a report. This is
      primarily useful for collecting local standard and package hook data for an
      already existing bug report which was not filed through Apport. This checks
      can_update()/is_reporter() if the user is eligible for updating that
      particular bug. (LP: #485880)

    - Ignore SIGXCPU and SIGXFSZ; thanks to Kees Cook. (LP: #498074)

    - launchpad.py: Do not mark non-Ubuntu bugs as needs-retrace, since there is
      no retracer right now. (LP: #489794)

    - packaging-apt-dpkg.py, install_retracing_packages(): Do not crash on
      malformed Dependencies.txt lines. (LP: #441709)

    - use-local: Fix for new source tree location of "apport" binary.

  * Drop debian/local/apport-collect{,.1} and install symlinks for apport-bug
    instead.
  * data/general-hooks/ubuntu.py: Do not report "corrupted filesystem tarfile"
    package errors. (LP: #320743)
  * data/general-hooks/ubuntu.py: Report "package ... is already installed and
    configured" errors against dpkg, not the package that failed. (LP: #467688)
