Title:
  Duplicate signature for Package problems missing info

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apport source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The code in apport which creates a duplicate signature for package
  installation failures changed in Ubuntu 16.04 and as part of that
  change we are no longer starting the duplicate signature with the
  following:

  dupe_sig = 'package:%s:%s:%s' % (package, version,
  report['ErrorMessage'])

  This change was made because 'ErrorMessage' was too vague, however
  having 'package:%s:%s' was useful in the Ubuntu Error Tracker.  The
  Error Tracker buckets package installation failures based off the
  duplicate signature and without the string 'package:$package' its hard
  to know if a bucket is about about a package installation failure.
  Additionally, buckets end up containing a mish-mash of different
  packages.  In the following error notice how the package version table
  contains a bunch of unrelated version numbers:

  https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/23630ea42dcd530db3633a250e04751630e2ac02

  The duplicate signature for problems with the type package should be
  changed to start with package and the package name at least.
