apport-cli claims launchpadlib not installed

[James Hunt]

I ran the following on a remote system:

$ apport-cli --save /tmp/cc1.crash cpp

then copied cc1.crash to my main workstations and ran:

$ apport-cli -c cc1.crash -u 1103414
ERROR: The launchpadlib Python module is not installed. This functionality is not available.

... but:

$ dpkg -l|egrep "apport|launchpadlib"
ii apport 2.8-0ubuntu2 all automatically generate crash reports for debugging
ii apport-gtk 2.8-0ubuntu2 all GTK+ frontend for the apport crash report system
ii apport-retrace 2.8-0ubuntu2 all tools for reprocessing Apport crash reports

Is this a duplicate of bug 1071905?

[Christopher Townsend (townsend)]

Yes, this is a duplicate of bug #1071905. In that bug, ubuntu-bug resolves to apport-cli which has this bug.
