[Launchpad Bug Tracker <911437@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 1.91-0ubuntu1

---------------
apport (1.91-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - crashdb.py, check_duplicate(): If a crash has a signature but no
      existing duplicate in the DB, also check for an existing address
      signature duplicate in the DB.
    - apport-retrace: Use DistroRelease specific subdirectory of the cache dir
      for mapping a file to a package, as these maps are release specific.
    - packaging-apt-dpkg.py: Refresh Contents.gz cache if it is older than one
      day.
    - crashdb.py: Ensure that address_signature duplicate db table does not
      have multiple identical signatures by making it a primary key. Bump the
      db format to "3". Existing databases need to be migrated manually as
      SQLite does not allow adding a "PRIMARY KEY" constraint to existing
      tables.
    - crashdb.py: Do not add a new address signature entry if one already
      exists.
    - apport-cli: Fix UnicodeDecodeError on unicode report values.
      (LP: #275972)
    - launchpad.py: Only set bug task importance if it is undecided.
    - apport-retrace: Fix "an useful" typo. (LP: #911437)
    - report.py: Filter out frames which are internal kernel/glibc
      implementation details and not stable across duplicates. In particular,
      filter out __kernel-syscall() and the SSE stubs.
    - crashdb.py: Remove debugging leftover which completely disabled bug
      pattern checking.
    - report.py: Update reading AssertionMessage. Current (e)glibc turned
      __abort_msg from a simple static string into a struct.
    - Change permissions of .crash files from 0600 to 0640, so that /var/crash
      can be made g+s and crash handling daemons can access those.
    - Python exceptions: Blacklist DBus.Error.NoReply. It does not help to get
      these traces from the client-side application, you need the actual
      exception in the D-Bus server backend instead. (LP: #914220)
    - Support /etc/apport/whitelist.d/ similarly to /etc/apport/blacklist.d/,
      for cases like installer environments where only crashes of a few selected
      programs should be reported.

Title:
  Apport retracing service: typo in "Crash report cannot be processed"
  comment ("an useful")

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I got this comment from the bot in a bug report (bug #907668):

  "Thank you for your report!

  However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
  developers failed (it does not generate an useful symbolic stack trace). This
  might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
  at the time of the report:"

  And so on.

  Instead of "an useful" it should say "a useful".
