Hello errors.ubuntu.com, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apport into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/2.20.1-0ubuntu2.17 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  Check Error Tracker bucket and make sure version from -proposed doesn't show up there. Given that this happens a whole bunch we should know pretty quick if its fixed.

  [Regression Potential]
  The test being modified is designed to not report crashes that happen during logout. It's possible that some reports don't have a Date in them but in that case we couldn't compare the logind_session information to the Date anyway so those crashes would have been reported anyway. Regardless, the potential is that we'll have some more crashes reported about things crashing on logout which is better than the hundreds of crashes we get like this one.

  The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding apport.  This problem was most recently seen with package version 2.20.3-0ubuntu8.2, the problem page at https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/65cb22d7c29a308dad9368b971e1b8d6384c9089 contains more details, including versions of packages affected, stacktrace or traceback, and individual crash reports.
