** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ apport-unpack crashes when trying to unpack a crash
+
+ [Test Case]
+ On a system running 20.04 LTS:
+ 1) create an additional user who is only a member of their own group e.g.
+ bdmurray@clean-focal-amd64:~$ id crashy
+ uid=1001(crashy) gid=1001(crashy) groups=1001(crashy)
+ 2) Launch a process as that user
+ 3) kill -11 that process
+ 4) Confirm there is a crash file in /var/crash for that process
+ 5) Run apport-unpack on that .crash file
+
+ With the version of apport from -proposed you will not get another crash
+ file when unpacking the crash file.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ We are just setting UserGroups to ' ' as opposed to having it be completely
empty so there isn't any chance for regression.
+
When running apport-unpack to get at a core dump
laney@raleigh> sudo apport-unpack

ValueError: ['UserGroups'] has no binary content

2.16.2
It's not terrible, because most files are unpacked (those which sort
before UserGroups, I guess).
