[Bug 2084648] [NEW] apport thinks that it has a modified file, but it does not

[Andrea C G Mennucci]

Public bug reported:

ubuntu-bug warns as follows:

** It seems you have modified the contents of "/etc/init.d/apport".
Would you like to add the contents of it to your bug report?


I used the command 
#  sudo apt install --reinstall apport-core-dump-handler
to be sure that  "/etc/init.d/apport" was not modified, but still this warning .

I also checked using
$ debsums -e apport-core-dump-handler
and the above file is unmodified

Thanks
