[Bug 1397887] Re: Apport asks to install 'bluez-hcidump' but this package does not exist

 

I found that this is still the case with apport 2.18-0ubuntu2 on Ubuntu
Wily. I've also found a couple of duplicates reported against the bluez
package, so I've marked that as also affected to make this bug more
discoverable.

** Also affects: bluez (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: bluez (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Also affects: apport
   Importance: Undecided

  I wanted to file a bug regarding bluetooth, so I run 'ubuntu-bug

  Apport is launched and proposes the following:

  ----------------------------------------
  Your bug report will be processed in few seconds.
  If you can reproduce it, please follow the next steps:
      - Install the package 'bluez-hcidump'
      - Open a new terminal
      - Run the command "sudo hcidump -XYt > $HOME/hci.log"
      - Reproduce the actions until the error happens
      - On the terminal, press Ctrl+C to stop hcidump.
      - Attach the file hci.log to the bug report.
  ----------------------------------------

  So I try to install the 'bluez-hcidump' package, but...

  ----------------------------------------
  % sudo apt-get install bluez-hcidump 
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree       
  Reading state information... Done
  Package bluez-hcidump is not available, but is referred to by another package.
  This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
  is only available from another source

  E: Package 'bluez-hcidump' has no installation candidate
