Ah, I see. When apport runs, it does not check the dpkg database for the originin of the executuable, it just applies some heuristics (checking dpkg takes ages).
And since /usr is reserved for distro packages (you should put custom stuff into /usr/local/), this usually does the right thing. Not displaying the dialog would be confusing if you previously got a bomb icon in update-notifier. It's a bit tricky to get this right. ** Changed in: apport (upstream) Importance: High => Low Status: Needs Info => Confirmed -- Please do not display crash reports for non-Ubuntu programs https://launchpad.net/bugs/83105 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
