The check to see if the package is one provided by Ubuntu can be skipped
by setting the local environment variable "APPORT_DISABLE_DISTRO_CHECK".
For example this works for me:

APPORT_DISABLE_DISTRO_CHECK=1 ubuntu-bug makemkv-oss

If I had not set the environment variable I would be presented with a
message about the package not being an official one. Is there a reason
that using that environment variable will not work for you?
