apport 0.81 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

apport (0.81) gutsy; urgency=low

  * apport/report.py: Remove '[apport]' default bug title prefix. (LP: #94819)
  * apport/crashdb_impl/launchpad.py: Tag new bugs with
    'apport-<problemtype>'. This replaces the former '[apport]' prefixing.
  * debian/local/setup-apport-retracer: Specify a path in '.' command and
    use sh again. Yay for me needing three attempts before actually RTFMing
    how '.' works (which is really nasty and strange IMHO).
  * bin/apport-chroot: Fix symlinks before repackaging the chroot tarball in
    'install' and 'installdeb' modes.
  * debian/local/setup-apport-retracer: Install python-libxml2 and python-apt.
  * bin/launchpad-crash-digger: Supply --auth instead of the deprecated
    --cookie to apport-chroot.
  * bin/apport-chroot: Fix identifier name in command_retrace().
  * debian/local/setup-apport-retracer: Set APPORT_CRASHDB_CONF to the local
    crashdb.conf.
  * bin/apport-chroot: Unset APPORT_CRASHDB_CONF for login and retrace.
  * bin/launchpad-crash-digger: Check the release of a bug and whether we have
    a chroot for it before untagging it. This avoids loosing tags for bugs we
    do not yet have a working retracer chroot for.
  * bin/apport-retrace: Do not abort with an exception if package installation
    fails. Give a proper error message instead and point to -u. (LP: #115681)
  * apport/crashdb_impl/launchpad.py, update(): Create a temporary directory
    and use proper file names for the new attachments. With TemporaryFile(),
    attachment file names ended up as '<fdopen>'. (LP: #115347)
  * apport/report.py, add_os_info(): Add field 'NonfreeKernelModules' which
    lists loaded kernel modules which do not have a FOSS license. This is
    particularly helpful for quickly checking for restricted graphics drivers.
    (LP: #103239)
  * apport_python_hook.py: Move the apport.* imports into the try: block and
    move the likely_packaged() test to the top, to avoid importing
    apport.report and creating a Report object for non-packaged scripts. This
    makes the entire code more efficient and robust against errors in the
    apport modules. (LP: #109955)
  * apport/report.py, add_gdb_info(): Intercept OSError from gdb invocation
    (which might be segfaulting itself) and just do not put any gdb output
    into the report. The automatic retracers can try their luck again.
    (LP: #112501)
  * bin/apport-retrace: Fix handling of packages which are still known to
    /var/lib/dpkg/status, but do not have an apt record any more; treat them
    like virtual packages and just issue a warning instead of falling over.
    (LP: #107474)
