apport-collect should check the status of tasks

Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

Release of Ubuntu: 9.04
Package Version: 0.133

The new utility apport-collect doesn't check to see if a bug task is closed before deciding to add the files for the package hook, subsequently unnecessary log files could be added to the bug report. This is also a problem because each attachment didn't end up being a separate comment and Launchpad didn't hide more than 80 comments. I think if the task is closed those files shouldn't be added to the bug report.

---------------
apport (0.134) jaunty; urgency=low

  * debian/local/apport-collect: Do not collect information for closed
    tasks. Thanks for Brian Murray for the initial patch! (LP: #331839)
  * apport/crashdb_impl/launchpad.py, download(): Download
    DpkgTerminalLog.txt attachment as well.
  * apport/report.py: If downloading a nonexisting bug pattern file
    name succeeds and returns a HTML snippet with "404 Not Found",
    consider this as failure. This repairs falling back to source
    package names. (LP: #328751)
  * apport/hookutils.py: Replace tabs with spaces.
