So my concern is the auto completion feature of the tags interface in
Launchpad because both of these tags start with the word apport.  Apport
is a confusing thing and since lots of bugs get tagged apport something
there is a risk of the tag being used incorrectly.  We could start with
the word package, like package-hook-apport, but again the word package
can be confusing.  So maybe if we start with hook like hook-for-apport?
