Title:
  When apport complains package is outdated, it doesn't let you update

Status in Apport:
  Confirmed
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apport

  Reportedly, when a package crashes but a newer version is available,
  apport tells you that it won't report a bug because the bug might have
  been fixed in the newer version. But it provides no obvious way of
  installing the newer version.

  This could be fixed by adding an "Update…" button to this message,
  that launches Update Manager.
