Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apport

If you have any packages that need updating, apport won't let you file
crash reports, even if the packages are unrelated to the package
containing the binary that crashed.  Much of update-manager only runs if
there are packages that need upgrading.  If there is a crash anywhere in
that code, apport will refuse to file it.

bug 267488 and bug 340970 are similar, but this is reported separately
because in this case apport simply doesn't work for this package, and
the resolution is potentially different in that update-manager and
similar packages (dpkg, apt-get, and friends) could be whitelisted to
skip the package check even if those bugs aren't fixed for packages in
general.
