Bug Description

Hallo
In Vivid if I run apport-bug (pkg) it always return that is not a genuine package:

The problem cannot be reported:

This is not an official Ubuntu package. Please remove any third party package and try again.

see attached screenshot.
Set as critical because it represent a loss of informations in a test environement ( eg: a medium user feel discouraged to report a bug)
Thanks
Fabio

P.S.:
This start happening after apport's upgrades and NOT runing a fresh installation.

Hallo Brian
Your suspects about the desktop environement are right, this was originally an Ubuntu desktop installation over wich I have installed the Ubuntu Kylin desktop env.

How did you install Ubuntu Kylin? Its strange to me that DistroRelease says 14.10 but the bug is tagged vivid.

Fabio Marconi (fabiomarconi) wrote :

Hallo
I installed a normal Ubuntu 14.04.01, upgraded to Utopic, upgraded to Vivid and then I have installed Ubuntukylin-desktop.
I am trying just now to redo all the steps I made to see if it is reproducible.
I've also tried a daily build of Vivid in wich apport is working normally.
Best regards

Hallo Brian
I have reistalled the system using a Ubuntu-Kylin Vivid image some weeks ago and it was working.
Now after these latest upgrades it is broken again, same behavior as before, all the packages are detected as NOT genuine.
Weird things I have done are installation of Ubuntu's mainline kernels and utilities like gdebi, synaptic, xchat and sogou pinyin input method, all fully working.
Any hint??
Best regards

This happens because /etc/os-release contains NAME="Ubuntu Kylin" and is_distro_package from packaging-apt-dpkg.py uses that as a part of checking if if the package is of "native" origin.

summary: - detect all packages as not genuine
+ On Ubuntu Kylin detect all packages as not genuine

Eek! That's not intended..

So could whatever modifies this file also create a corresponding /etc/apport/native-origins.d/ubuntu-kylin containing "Ubuntu Kylin"?

Hallo Martin
Happy to meet you
I do not have that file in my Vivid Kylin, inside /etc/apport/native-origins.d I have firefox and thunderbird files, nothing more.
Thanks and best regards

It's the ubuntukylin-default-settings package which modifies /etc/os-release:

 $ grep -r 'os-release' *
debian/ubuntukylin-default-settings.postrm: sed -i "/NAME/s/Ubuntu Kylin/Ubuntu/g" /etc/os-release
debian/changelog: * Be more specific in replacing Ubuntu in /etc/os-release to prevent
debian/changelog: * Use os-release instead of ubuntukylin-release

debian/ubuntukylin-default-settings.preinst: sed -i 's/\(PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu\) 1/\1 Kylin 1/' /etc/os-release

So that package should also contain the apport setup in comment #23.
