Bug Description
When I install mtr I get this error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mtr : Depends: libncurses5 (>= 6) but 5.9+20140118-

So I tried to file a bug against mtr. But I got an error from apport:
The problem cannot be reported:
This is not an official Ubuntu package. Please remove any third party package and try again.
Which is trivially wrong:

Description-en: Full screen ncurses and X11 traceroute tool
mtr combines the functionality of the 'traceroute' and 'ping' programs
in a single network diagnostic tool.
.
As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection between the host
mtr runs on and a user-specified destination host. After it
determines the address of each network hop between the machines,
it sends a sequence ICMP ECHO requests to each one to determine the
quality of the link to each machine. As it does this, it prints
running statistics about each machine.
