My work-around works – but not for the reason I thought. Looks like the mozillateam Firefox PPA package adds an entry to /etc/apport/native- origins.d, which in turn triggers what looks like a trivial bug in /usr/share/pyshared/apport/packaging_impl.py.
The attached patch corrects it for me. ** Patch added: "Fix path when opening files under /etc/apport/native-origins.d" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/877848/+attachment/2589296/+files/apport-packaging_impl.py-fix-fopen-path.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877848 Title: apport can't find firefox - FAIL!
