Public bug reported:

We are see lots of package installation failures that look like:

package:apport:2.20.3-0ubuntu8
Preparing to unpack .../023-apport_2.20.3-0ubuntu8.2_all.deb ...
  File "/usr/bin/pyclean", line 63
    except (IOError, OSError), e:
                             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

One explanation for this is that pyclean is actually be run by python3
instead of python2.7. To confirm and invalidate reports like this apport
should check to see what /usr/bin/python and /usr/bin/python3 are
symlinks to or doulbe check the versions of /usr/bin/python and
/usr/bin/python3.

** Affects: apport (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
