In some reports the key 'ErrorMessage' contains the string 'ErrorMessage: ' in the value

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Binary package hint: apport

In some reports of type 'Package' the key 'ErrorMessage' contains the string 'ErrorMessage: ' in the value instead of only the error message returned by dpkg.

e.g
ErrorMessage:
 ErrorMessage: package wine1.2 is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `config-files')

It should be
ErrorMessage: package wine1.2 is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `config-files')

Right, I've seen plenty of those too.
