This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.8
---------------
apport (2.14.1-0ubuntu3.8) trusty-proposed; urgency=medium
* Backport changes from 14.10 to ensure that automatic crash reporting
works. (LP: #1431058)
- Refactor whoopsie-upload-all to behave more reliably in case of
overlapping crash processing.
- debian/apport-noui.upstart: refactor to make this an 'instance' job for
each incoming .crash file, and drop the racy handling of non-root .crash
files (as well as the unnecessary 'env MATCH' line).
- debian/apport-noui.upstart: remove early exit
- debian/apport-noui.dirs: create /var/lib/apport
- apport-noui: make the package installation automatically enable
autosubmission, and update the package description accordingly.

The version of apport in Ubuntu 14.04 is missing a few changes that
would allow users to install apport-noui and allow crash reports to be
submitted automatically from systems with it installed. The changes
are the following:
* debian/apport-noui.upstart: remove early exit (LP: #1235436)
* debian/apport-noui.dirs: create /var/lib/apport (LP: #1235436)
* data/whoopsie-upload-all: backport utopic version of it
* apport-noui: make the package installation automatically enable
autosubmission, and update the package description accordingly.
LP: #1351137.
The changes to whoopsie-upload-all can be found in this revision
(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-
dev/ubuntu/vivid/apport/ubuntu/revision/2351) and they were fixing LP:
#1354318. It would be useful if users of 14.04 could install apport-
noui and have crash reports automatically submitted for them.
