apport-chroot uses wrong apport-retrace option --no-dpkg

Bug Description

Binary package hint: apport

$ apport-chroot -m chroot/chroot.map retrace /var/crash/_bin_bash.1000.crash
Usage: apport-retrace [options] <apport problem report | crash ID>

apport-retrace: error: no such option: --no-dpkg
$

From this: http://<email address hidden>/msg08138.html
this was supposed to be fixed already in Jaunty.

Looking further, it appears that in Karmic, apport-retrace requires the new --no-pkg option while apport-chroot still calls apport-retrace using the old --no-dpkg.

Kind regards,

Alain
