Public bug reported: Bug #1509020 is the second instance of an apport-reported bug that includes the following HookError_ubuntu.txt contents:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 197, in _run_hook symb['add_info'](report, ui) File "/usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ubuntu.py", line 66, in add_info check_attachment_for_errors(report, attachment) File "/usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ubuntu.py", line 155, in check_attachment_for_errors trim_dpkg_log(report) File "/usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ubuntu.py", line 440, in trim_dpkg_log report['DpkgTerminalLog'] = '\n'.join([str(line.decode('utf-8')) for line in lines]) File "/usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ubuntu.py", line 440, in <listcomp> report['DpkgTerminalLog'] = '\n'.join([str(line.decode('utf-8')) for line in lines]) UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 11584: invalid continuation byte Obviously the specific byte and the position were different in the other bug report. Apport is assuming some input should be in utf8 but it is a byte stream instead, one that probably depends upon the user's locale.
