Skia found the better solution: Just install apport-noui
apport-noui depends on whoopsie and does this on post-install:
```
touch /var/lib/apport/autoreport
# start the autoreport service on installation
if [ -x "/usr/bin/deb-systemd-helper" ]; then
deb-systemd-invoke start 'apport-autoreport.path' >/dev/null || true
fi
```

Title:
Please document how to enable/disable autoreporting
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
We got the question: How is apport autoreporting enabled in a headless
system?
I found https://documentation.ubuntu.com/server/how-
to/software/report-a-bug/ but that does not say anything about the
autoreporting. I found a lot of very old documentation that did not
help.
Please document how to enable/disable autoreporting. In case this
documentation lives outside the apport code base, the documentation in
the apport code should point to that documentation.
