Impact
======
The Apport GUI will not start if the apport/apport-gtk/apport-kde
package is older than 2.23.1 but python3-apport was upgraded to >=
2.23.1. ubuntu-bug will crash:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk", line 596, in <module>
app = GTKUserInterface()
File "/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk", line 56, in __init__
apport.ui.UserInterface.__init__(self)
TypeError: UserInterface.__init__() missing 1 required positional argument:
'argv'

Test Plan
=========
1. Install apport from jammy:
```
sudo apt install apport/jammy apport-gtk/jammy python3-apport/jammy
python3-problem-report/jammy
```
2. Upgrade python3-apport:
```
sudo apt install python3-apport/kinetic-proposed
```
3. Launch apport-bug:
```
apport-bug
```
All four apport package should be upgraded and apport-bug should
launch without problems.
Where problems could occur
==========================
The added Breaks will affect how APT handles the packages and could
trigger/reveal bug there or could put pressure on APT finding a
solution.
