Title:
  dependencies on lsb-release should be reevaluated

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in apport source package in Zesty:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  apport has a build-dep and python[3]-apport depends on lsb-release,
  however apport/packaging.py only uses this as a fallback after looking
  at /etc/os-release.

  That being said backends/packaging-apt-dpkg.py contains a
  get_distro_codename function which doesn't use /etc/os-release.
