Title:
  apport-collect is not functional until manual installation of python-
  apport

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Install Ubuntu 17.10
  2. Try to launch `apport-collect 1712200`

  Expected results:
  apport-collect works out-the-box and collected corresponding info

  Actual results:
  apport-collect does not work and shows message:

  "You need to run 'sudo apt-get install python-apport' for apport-
  collect to work."

  Note: manual installation of python-apport adds 15 MB of new packages,
  after that apport-collect works as expected.
