Hi,

I did work on this bug sometime back, however, I am not sure if it works because I was not able to test it on my system.

Here is what I did:
In apport there is a check to see if the package being reported is obsolete (apport/ui.py) , so the previous behavior was to show a message box informing the user that perhaps updating the packages might solve the problem.

I added my code here, so instead of displaying the messagebox on finding outdated (or obsolete ?) packages it will display a dialog box asking the user if he would like to update the packages ? . I consulted Martin Pitt about this and did as he told me to do.

I am not sure if it works, just attaching the patch so that someone might give a review.

Thanks
