[Bug 1989467] Re: Several autopkgtest failures on Ubuntu 22.04 and older

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Benjamin, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apport into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/2.20.11-0ubuntu82.2 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, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. 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 for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  Several autopkgtest failures on Ubuntu 22.04 and older

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apport source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in apport source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  All autopkgtest fail on Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy) and older: https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/apport
  This leads to not detecting regressions from security updates.

  [Test Plan]

  Check that the autopkgtest succeed all architectures (except for
  i386).

  [Where problems could occur]

  The test cases are only part of the apport source package and are not
  copied in any binary packages. Changes to the test will only affect
  the package build and test execution.

  [Other info]

  Due to the huge amount of broken autopkgtest tests, the diff for the
  SRUs are bigger than desired. The individual commits in
  https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu/+source/apport/ are
  probably easier to review.
