[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1303275@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package dkms - 2.2.0.3-2ubuntu8

---------------
dkms (2.2.0.3-2ubuntu8) xenial; urgency=medium

  * apport_python3.patch: Force unicode conversion for attaching DKMSBuildLog.
    This is in principle a human readable file, and the subsequent code wants
    to treat it as a string, not bytes. (LP: #1303275)
