Not sure whether you saw this:

  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-October/021500.html

So getting the ddebs is really easy now.

I wouldn't like to add any such specifics to apport-gtk itself. The
UI should be as easy as possible, and a user should not be required to
do any such stuff. 

However, my TODO list still has an item about writing a wiki page
about all of apport, debug symbols, etc., which should be useful for
bug triagers and devleopers.
