Seems that we need to hardcode the /rofs/ special case into apport.

   * apport/report.py, add_proc_info(): Chop off /rofs/ prefix from
     ExecutablePath, so that crashes work on the live system, too. Arguably a
     kernel bug, but probably too hard to fix at this time. (LP: #102909)
   * backends/packaging-dpkg.py, get_modified_files(): Ignore empty lines in
     broken .md5sums file rather than crashing on them. (LP: #102906)
