[Bug 1658188] Re: /usr/share/apport/apport-gtk:TypeError:/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk at 597:run_argv:run_crashes

[Brian Murray]

This was actually fixed in the following version of apport.

apport (2.20.5-0ubuntu1) artful; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    - bin/apport-retrace: Comment on bug reports when an invalid core file is
      encountered. (LP: #1647635)
    - Switch to using HxW directory names for app icons instead of just one
      number. Thanks to Jeremy Bicha for the patch.
    - apport/ui.py: Ensure the Date field exists in a report before using it in a 
      comparison. (LP: #1658188)
    - bin/apport-retrace: Add in a --gdb-sandbox switch which creates or utilizes
      a sandbox with the report's distribution release and the host system's
      architecture for installing and running gdb. (LP: #1517257)
    - apport/hookutils.py: Don't crash if .xsession-errors is not readable by the
      user. (LP: #1675928)
    - bin/apport-retrace: Be specific about which required field is missing from a
      report and not retracing it.
  * debian/control: Adjust Vcs-Bzr: for artful branch.
