Public bug reported:
Currently there's no way (at least based on `man apport-bug`) to tell if
apport failed due to an unexpected exception or refused to submit data
because the package it was supposed to create a bug report for is a
third party package.
Afaik, `man apport-bug` doesn't clearly mention the major limitation of
`apport-bug` which is not to support third party PPA packages at all.
