Comment 0 for bug 1583279

As we can see in bug 1581940 (attachment HookError_source_mdadm.py) the apport package hook for mdadm causes a traceback.

Here's the Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 197, in _run_hook
    symb['add_info'](report, ui)
TypeError: add_info() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
