Title:
  dkms apport package hook doesn't write package version to apport
  Package key

Status in dkms package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dkms source package in Trusty:

Status in dkms source package in Utopic:

Bug description:
  Test Case
  ---------
  Check existing problems in the error tracker to see if version numbers start appearing on the bucket page.

  Description
  -----------
  In the apport package hook we can see the following:

     report['Package'] = package

  Apport itself would have written this as "package version" and the
  Error Tracker is written to parse the Package key into package and
  version. However, this fails with dkms packages e.g.:

  https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/458a601a-c528-11e4-8b55-fa163e4ccdf2

  This then leads to problem buckets with no version information which
  naturally isn't useful.

  dkms%3A6.30.223.141-1%3A/var/lib/dkms/broadcom-
  sta/6.30.223.141/build/src/wl/sys/wl_cfg80211_hybrid.c%3A1844%3A4%3A%20error%3A%20too%20few%20arguments%20to%20function%20%E2%80%98cfg80211_ibss_joined%E2%80%99

  I've fixed this in Vivid with package version 2.2.0.3-2ubuntu2, but
  this fix should be SRU'ed to 14.04 and 14.10
