[Bug 1893838] [NEW] ubuntu-bug shall try to find the package a command belongs to

[Thomas Schweikle]

Public bug reported:

ubuntu-bug shall try to find a package a command belongs to if the given
name does not match an installed package.

Now:
# ubuntu-bug ubuntu-bug
dpkg-query: Kein Paket gefunden, das auf ubuntu-bug passt

ubuntu-bug shall do in such cases:
- look for the package:
  # dpkg -S $( which ubuntu-bug )
  apport: /usr/bin/ubuntu-bug

and then use "apport" to generate the report.
