This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.19.3-0ubuntu1
---------------
apport (2.19.3-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium
* New upstream microrelease:
- apt/dpkg: Fix source record lookup in install_packages. Thanks Brian
Murray!
- hookutils.py, attach_gsettings_schema(): Don't replace the schema
variable; fixes attaching relocatable schemas. Thanks Sébastien Bacher!
- generic hook: Limit JournalErrors to the 1.000 last lines. This avoids
long report load times when processes cause massive log spew.
(LP: #1516947)
- Add key filtering to ProblemReport.load().
- Don't read the entire report when determining the CrashCounter. This
avoids long delays for existing large reports.
- test_python_crashes.py: Be less sensitive to the precise names of
gvfs-metadata D-Bus service files.
- Move backend_apt_dpkg -dbgsym test cases to Ubuntu 15.10.
- Tests: Move to unittest's builtin "mock" module.
