[Bug 1397887] [NEW] Apport asks to install 'bluez-hcidump' but this package does not exist

[Pierre Equoy]

Public bug reported:

I wanted to file a bug regarding bluetooth, so I run 'ubuntu-bug bluez'.

Apport is launched and proposes the following:

----------------------------------------
Your bug report will be processed in few seconds.
If you can reproduce it, please follow the next steps:
    - Install the package 'bluez-hcidump'
    - Open a new terminal
    - Run the command "sudo hcidump -XYt > $HOME/hci.log"
    - Reproduce the actions until the error happens
    - On the terminal, press Ctrl+C to stop hcidump.
    - Attach the file hci.log to the bug report.
----------------------------------------

So I try to install the 'bluez-hcidump' package, but...

----------------------------------------
% sudo apt-get install bluez-hcidump 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package bluez-hcidump is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'bluez-hcidump' has no installation candidate
