I'm pretty sure this only happens when you've first installed a system
and haven't run apt-get update. Here's a test case for an already
installed system.

1) run sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/
2) run apt-cache policy apport
3) observe there is no archive mirror in the version table
4) run apport-bug apport (any package will work)
5) observe the package isn't an official one

If I'm right about why you are experiencing that bug then I'm fairly
certain its already been reported.
