What is in the directory which you passed to the -S switch? That directory should be structured so that you have folders matching releases and in those folders sources.list files for that release. Here's an example from my system:
$ ls ~/source-trees/daisy/watchtower-archive crashdb.conf Ubuntu 11.04 Ubuntu 12.04 Ubuntu 13.04 Ubuntu 14.04 Ubuntu 15.04 Ubuntu 16.04 Ubuntu 17.04 Ubuntu RTM 14.09 Ubuntu 10.04 Ubuntu 11.10 Ubuntu 12.10 Ubuntu 13.10 Ubuntu 14.10 Ubuntu 15.10 Ubuntu 16.10 Ubuntu Core 16 [ 2:56PM 10151 ] [ bdmurray@impulse:~/source-trees/error-tracker-deployment/trunk ] $ ls ~/source-trees/daisy/watchtower-archive/Ubuntu\ 17.04 arm64 armhf codename powerpc ppc64el sources.list So I call apport-retrace with: "-S ~/source-trees/daisy/watchtower-archive/" apport then reads DistroRelease from the report to choose which directory in the argument to -S to search for sources.list.
