This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.2

---------------
apport (2.20.9-0ubuntu7.2) bionic; urgency=medium

  * apport/ui.py: Include ProblemType in reports which are updated as
    package hooks may expect the report to have a ProblemType. (LP: #1766794)
  * test/test_ui.py: modify run_crash_kernel test to account for the fact
    that linux-image-$kvers-$flavor is now built from the linux-signed
    source package on amd64 and ppc64el. (LP: #1766740)
  * data/general-hooks/ubuntu.py: Don't display a messy error if python or
    python3 is not installed. (LP: #1769262)
  * debian/apport.links: source_linux-signed.py -> source_linux.py package
    hook (LP: #1773012)
  * data/package-hooks/source_linux.py: Redirect bugs filed about the
    linux-signed source package to linux. (LP: #1773012)

Title:
  kernel bugs in bionic are reported about linux-signed and package hook
  doesn't run

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apport source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  During the development of bionic the linux-image-$kvers-$flavor
  package was changed from being built from the linux package to the
  linux-signed package, however apport was not updated in bionic for
  this change. Subsequently, the apport package hook for linux doesn't
  run for linux-signed bug reports. Additionally, the kernel team would
  like reports about linux-signed redirected to the linux package.

  Test Case
  ---------
  1) In a terminal run 'ubuntu-bug linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic'
  2) In the crash report dialog observe the following:
    a) The source package is linux-signed
    b) ProcFB is not included

  With the version of the package from -proposed the source package will
  be linux and ProcFB will be included. Also test 'ubuntu-bug linux-
  image-generic' to and check to see that the crash report contains the
  same information as above.

  Regression Potential
  --------------------
  The code that redirects bugs from linux-signed to linux was written and that 
change, if it were bad, could negatively affect bugs reported about the 
linux-meta package. So it'd be good to test that process by running 'ubuntu-bug 
linux-image-generic' with the -proposed version of the package.
