Title:
  ubuntu-release-upgrader doesn't depend on python-apport

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “update-manager” source package in Saucy:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Test Case:
  1) run python /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeApport.py (we are using python here because the release upgrader runs with python2 not 3)
  2) notice a failed to import apport python module error message

  With the package from -proposed you should receive a "Crash report"
  dialog saying that 'do-release-upgrade has stopped unexpectedly'.  Do
  not submit the crash report.

  This is because ubuntu-release-upgrader doesn't depend on python-
  apport and it is no longer depended on by anything else.  I mean that
  package used to be installl on most Ubuntu systems because apport or
  ubuntuone-client depended on it.
