While this may fix it for DpkgTerminalLog, the fix is not generic so if
another attachment were to be a bytes object and a bug pattern were
written for that attachment we would get the same crash. I think this
code in apport/report.py needs to modified:
if c.hasChildNodes() and c.childNodes[0].nodeType ==
xml.dom.Node.TEXT_NODE:
regexp = c.childNodes[0].nodeValue
v = report[key]
if isinstance(v, problem_report.CompressedValue):
v = v.get_value()
regexp = regexp.encode('UTF-8')
try:
re_c = re.compile(regexp)
except:
continue
if not re_c.search(v):
return None
