[ubuntu/karmic] apport 1.9-0ubuntu1 (Accepted)

apport (1.9-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - Add "do what I mean" mode to command line argument parsing (applies to
      all interfaces: -cli, -gtk, -kde). When giving a single argument and no
      options, determine the most likely mode, like reporting a bug against a
      symptom, package, executable name, or PID.
    - Add program "apport-bug" which determines the most appropriate user
      interface (GTK, KDE, CLI) and files a bug through it, using the single
      argument "do what I mean" mode. This is an improved version of Ubuntu's
      "ubuntu-bug" script.
    - Update apport-cli manpage to current set of options and behaviour. Also
      point out that apport-gtk and apport-kde share the same CLI.
    - setup.py now installs apport-{gtk,kde} into $prefix/share/apport/, they
      are not supposed to be called directly. This also reflects the path
      which the .desktop files expect.
    - setup.py now installs the internal helper scripts like
      "kernel_crashdump", "apport", or "apportcheckresume" into
       $prefix/share/apport instead of $prefix/bin.
    - Update usage of gettext to work around Python bug of gettext() not
      returning unicodes, but str. Fixes UnicodeDecodeErrors on translated
      --help output.
    - Add missing gettext wrapping for user-visible strings in
      apport-{retrace,unpack} and ui.py; thanks to Marco Rodrigues!
    - backends/packaging-apt-dpkg.py: Robustify get_{source,architecture} for
      uninstalled packages
    - ui.py: Add --version option. Thanks Marco Rodrigues! (LP: #383694)
  * debian/local/apport-collect: Fix KeyError crash on nonexisting LP bug
    number. Thanks Marco Rodrigues! (LP: #424273)
  * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no changes necessary).
  * debian/local/apport-collect: Point out that you need to select "Change
    anything" privileges. (LP: #373700)
  * debian/control: Drop obsolete texlive-latex-recommended build dependency.
  * debian/rules: Drop --install-scripts, upstream now installs the files and
    binaries into the right place. Adapt debian/*.install accordingly.
  * Drop debian/local/ubuntu-bug{,.1} and replace them with symlinks to
    apport-bug{,.1}, which is a more robust version of ubuntu-bug.
