Title:
  ubuntu-bug reports vlc as being a non ubuntu package

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  ubuntu-bug reports vlc not being an ubuntu package, but the version
  reported by "dpkg -l | grep vlc" matches the version found in ubuntu
  repositories. This there are two possibilities:

  1. ubuntu-bug doesn't handle version strings proper
  2. ubuntu-bug matches additional information, but does not inform about these

  I would expect ubuntu-bug

  1. to match even complicated version strings proper
  2. tell about other valuable information why it thinks this is not a "genuie ubuntu package"
  3. I'd expect ubuntu-bug to report any bugs about packages found in ubuntu-ppa to the ppa maintainer automatically, not bailing out leaving me alone about bug reports.

  What I am seeing is at least bad behavior.
