** Description changed: [ Impact ] Apport contains the "package hook" for the ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap snap, which is used for information collection during error reporting. The content of the hook currently in Noble doesn't collect modern information that is generally useful for triaging bug reports. The content of this SRU updates the ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap package hook to contain information as of the latest update in Plucky [1]. - [ Test Plan ] - The test plan is focused on testing the behavior of apport within the live installation environment, where we primarily expect users to submit bug reports from. The test plan involves performing an install to completion (without rebooting), testing the existing hook and comparing the keys in the generated report to those expected, and finally updated the hook and re-comparing to the expected keys. + The test plan is focused on testing the behavior of apport within the + live installation environment, where we primarily expect users to submit + bug reports from.

This code in this file is only ever executed as part of ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap's "package hook" and so should only regress behavior as part of data collection for ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap bug reporting. However, if this happened, then it would prevent users from submitting bugs against ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap via `ubuntu-bug`. + This update only makes changes to the file: /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap.py + thus I only expect regressions in the form of manual bug reporting failures.
