[Bug 1365137] [NEW] if apport can't determine the package it creates a report without a package key

 

Public bug reported:

In the event that apport's add_package_info is not passed a package
parameter and apport.fileutils.find_file_package(self['ExecutablePath'])
returns nothing then a report is created with a Package key. This is
currently the case with click packages, see bug 1365079.  However,
independent of fixing that issue I think it might be worth while if
apport were to add a Package key with "unknown" to the report to allow
all these types of issues to be more easily found on the error tracker.
This way the individual instances could be investigated and potentially
resolved.
