This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.20.8-0ubuntu7
---------------
apport (2.20.8-0ubuntu7) bionic; urgency=medium
* bin/apport-bug: recommend python3-apport not python-apport.
(LP: #1729879)
* data/package-hooks/source_ubiquity.py: Convert the content of syslog from
bytes to string so comparison and regex matches in the hook work. Thanks
to Jean-Baptiste Lallement for the improved patch. (LP: #1582950)
