Public bug reported:
update-notifier-crash is hardcoded to launch apport-gtk even though the
update-notifier package only suggests the apport-gtk package. This
results in the service failing and `systemctl --user status` showing
"degraded".

# Analysis
My crash notifications are working fine on KDE even without this as
confirmed by `(xclock &); sleep 1; killall -8 xclock`.
Either /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-notifier-crash needs to check for the existence of apport-gtk, or /usr/lib/systemd/user/update-notifier-crash.service needs to be masked on KDE.
