apport (2.16.2-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium
* New upstream bug fix release:
- ProblemReport: Set a timestamp of 0 in gzip compressed fields; they are
meaningless and cause unnecessary jitter in the output.
- launchpad backend: Fix unclosed file in upload().
- launchpad backend: Fix wrong use of filter() with Python 3.
- launchpad backend download(): Try to convert textual values from byte
arrays into into strings.
- ui.py, collect_info(): Fix crash on bug pattern checking with broken
gzipped values. (LP: #1345653)
- hookutils, attach_drm_info(): Avoid UnicodeDecodeErrors in Python 3 when
reading binary files. Thanks Chad Miller. (LP: #1425254)
- apport-gtk: Update legacy icon names to modern GTK ones, to fix icons
under GNOME. Thanks Scott Sanbar. (LP: #1422176)
- Move backend_apt_dpkg testsuite to use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
- hookutils, attach_dmesg(): Only attach dmesg as CurrentDmesg, drop
BootDmesg as /var/log/dmesg is upstart specific and thus not reliably
correct any more.
- hookutils, recent_syslog(): Read system logs from the journal when
running under systemd, and fall back to /var/log/syslog if not.
- hookutils, attach_mac_events(): Read kernel violation messages from
dmesg instead of /var/log/kern.log, as that's specific to rsyslog and
its configuration.

apport hookutils.attach_drm open()s files as if they are text, and
then processes the results as if they're unicode. Both are trouble.
