We had a look over the patch and decided to make it more flexible and delegate to apport. The attached patch is much simpler and should be able to be applied immediately with no changes to dependencies etc.

apport needs a new module added - the one python looks for :).

mdz set the target, perhaps a comment when changing the target would be useful, so folk dont need to guess at why its being changed ?

I set the milestone to the 'later' milestone for edgy, which is a list we check early in the feisty release to remember to make changes which couldn't be done for edgy.

Matthias, please merge this.

Available patch is for 2.4, and 2.4 is our default version, so this should be applied first.

 apport (0.31) feisty; urgency=low
 .
   * Move scripts to bin/ in source package.
   * Add apport/python_hook.py: Default exception handler for Python, to create
     apport reports for unhandled exceptions. Thanks to Robert Collins
     <email address hidden> for this! Closes: LP#70957
   * Add new package python-apport to ship the new Python package 'apport'.
     This includes the python crash hook for now, but in the near future
     apport-utils will get redesigned and put into this package, too.
   * debian/control: apport now depends on python-apport instead of
     python-apport-utils.
   * apport_utils.py: Quiesce gdb error messages in test suite.
