. After actually having looked at this I think that hooks should write a
complete Package: field after all; otherwise we force apport to always
rewrite the entire apport file, which can be really expensive. So I will
fix the hooks after all, see that this becomes simpler, and adjust the
tests to catch this.

Title:
package_hook does not include package version
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in apport source package in Trusty:
Fix Committed
Status in apport source package in Vivid:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
All of these problem reports are missing a package version:
https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/abc807de9d9c87d965fea31c865192edb30b6738
This is because package_hook in apport only writes the following:
pr['Package'] = options.package
We should include the package version in the problem report.
Test Case
---------
1) echo "You have failed this city." | /usr/share/apport/package_hook -p
apport
2) grep "^Package" /var/crash/apport.1000.crash
With the current version of apport you'll only see the package name,
with the version from -proposed you'll see the package version in
addition to the name.
Regression Potential
--------------------
Worst case scenario I screwed the patch up and we loose the package name too,
but given that it works in wily and there is a test for it in test_hooks.py
that seems unlikely.
