Cassandra only creates columns for a row if the column exists and
contains data, so if the apport report has no Package key then the row
in the OOPS table is created without a Package column for that crash.
Subsequently, querying for crashes without a Package is something of a
mess.

Title:
  if apport can't determine the package it creates a report without a
  package key

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  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 without 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.
