Hi, thanks for taking the time to report this issue and contributing to Ubuntu :)

I just confirmed on my system.

Since the number of transitional packages is fairly small, I think we should just maintain a hardcoded list in Apport and hide the .deb by default (with maybe a way to override this?)

Marking as Low priority, since this is IMHO something of a papercut (still annoying, though!)

Changed in apport (Ubuntu):
status: New → Triaged
importance: Undecided → Low
summary: - Ubuntu-bug thinks i have 2 firefox installed
+ ubuntu-bug shows both the snap and the transitional deb
