[Bug 705306] [NEW] [reprepro] This is not a genuine Ubuntu package

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Bolesław Tokarski (boleslaw-tokarski):

Binary package hint: apport

We have setup reprepro to mirror the Ubuntu Lucid repository (lucid, lucid-updates and lucid-security). 
This is mainly because we are adding minor changes to packages, i.e. ca-certificates to include our company certs.
However, kernel, applications and all the other stuff is left from Ubuntu Lucid.
Obviously, reprepro signs the repository with a different gpg key than the one used for Lucid.

Lastly however, I tried to report a bug in the audio support of Dell
E6410 docking station with and ran into a bug in apport. There is an
error message "Problem in alsa-base": "The problem cannot be reported"
"This is not a genuine Ubuntu package".

Obviously this is not true. The kernel, alsa-base package, pulseaudio,
all kernel modules come from Lucid. I changed the sources.list to the
one that originally came with Lucid, apt-get update (no 'apt-get
upgrade') and reported the problem fine.
