Title:
  Auto-collected information cause hardly discoverable error

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When I report a bug, the tags field (optional) is filled with stuff.
  In this instance, tags are:

  "apport-bug i386 /usr/bin/python:
  /usr/share/dike/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: no version information
  available (required by /usr/bin/python) /usr/bin/python:
  /usr/share/dike/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: no version information
  available (required by /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0) precise"

  It was kinda difficult to find out where the error is, and after
  discovering where the error is, the information provided is very
  limited. After a while one discovers that it's the content of the tags
  that causes the error.

  The workaround is to remove tags, but I wonder why this information is
  included in the first place.
