Public bug reported:
When removed (but not purged), apport leaves /etc/init/apport.conf and
/etc/init.d/apport, which is enough for commands like "service apport
start" to work. "service apport start" runs without complaining and
overrides /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern to send core dumps to apport,
even though apport doesn't exist.
Apport's service scripts should refuse to run if Apport isn't installed
and, in particular, shouldn't break /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern.
Observed in Ubuntu 14.04.1, apport 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.5.
** Affects: apport (Ubuntu)
