[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1351137@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

On newly-installed devices, the /var/lib/apport/autoreport file is
missing.  This file is required to be present in order for /etc/init
/apport-noui.conf to autosubmit crash reports to Canonical.  It is
supposed to be created by default, and because this is a configuration
setting, it cannot be set at image build time because it needs to be in
the read-write portion of the filesystem.

Since ubuntu-system-settings manages this file, and since the default
setting should be restored on factory reset, I believe the right thing
is for ubuntu-system-settings-wizard to create the file at the time it
notifies the user of this policy on first boot.  (Indeed, I had believed
this was already being done.  I'm not sure if this regressed, or if the
requirement failed to be communicated.)
