Title:
  Ensure whoopsie sends complete crash files to the error tracker

Status in Daisy:
  Invalid
Status in Errors:
  Invalid
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apport source package in Precise:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Apport was modifed in bug 989698 to stop showing the information collection process if the crash database (launchpad) doesn't accept a type of report.  Data would be collected in the background and whoopsie would just upload the crash.  This led to a situation where whoopsie might upload the .crash file to daisy before the information collection was done.  Subsequently, there are error reports missing valuable data like the package version and release of Ubuntu.

  [Test Case]

  [Regression Potential]

  We do not appear to be getting many crash reports for the current
  development release, according to the API:

  https://errors.ubuntu.com/api/most-common-
  problems/Ubuntu%2012.10/today

  The DistroRelease field is definitely set to "Ubuntu 12.10", so this
  is likely not a problem of it showing up under "Ubuntu 12.10
  (development release)" or "Ubuntu Quantal".
