Hello errors.ubuntu.com, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apport into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/2.20.11-0ubuntu27.10 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

Title:
  
/usr/share/apport/dump_acpi_tables.py:PermissionError:/usr/share/apport/dump_acpi_tables.py@59:dump_acpi_tables:dump_acpi_table

Bug description:
  Impact
  ------
  Users running /usr/share/apport/dump_acpi_tables.py will receive a Traceback 
unless it is called by root.

  Test Case
  ---------
  1) Run /usr/share/apport/dump_acpi_tables.py
  2) Observe the Traceback in comment #1

  Additionally, running 'ubuntu-bug' about a package which calls
  attach_hardware (which then calls dump_acpi_tables.py) will have a
  Traceback in acpidump.

  1) Run 'ubuntu-bug udev'
  2) Save the report
  3) View the report and see the Traceback from comment #1 in it

  With the version of the package from -proposed you will not receive a
  Traceback in either situation.

  Regression Potential
  --------------------
  If the python is bad we could have a different crash.
