---------------
apport (2.2.5-0ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  * New upstream bug fix release:
    - launchpad.py: Fix str vs. bytes crash for already known bugs, take 2.
       (LP: #1015788)
    - apport/ui.py, get_desktop_entry(): Disable interpolation, to correctly
      read desktop files with % signs. (LP: #1014341)
    - apport/ui.py: Fix rare crash if a report is already being updated in the
      background when the UI tries to update a previous version. (LP: #949196)
    - GTK and KDE UI tests: Avoid eternal hangs due to "this is not a distro
      package" error messages.
