[Bug 497796] [NEW] Without an apt cache, packages are not considered "genuine Ubuntu packages"

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Tom Ellis (tellis):

When trying to report an unrelated bug in alacarte, Apport repeatedly
failed with the error message: "This bug cannot be reported: This is not
a genuine Ubuntu package." I have attached a screenshot of this
occurring on a fresh install of Lucid alpha 1 (x86 version).

Just to ensure that this was not a random fluke, I also ran "ubuntu-bug
apport" from the command-line and received the same error. Indeed,
apport appears to regard every program as not a "genuine Ubuntu
program."

I would also include the contents of /var/log/apport.log, but no such
file exists on my system. The directory /var/crash is empty. The output
of uname -a is "Linux [HOSTNAME] 2.6.32-7-generic #10-Ubuntu SMP Sun Dec
6 13:43:20 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux".
