This is interesting. Apport is disabled in the release itself, so this
hook should not be getting triggered at all.
Now, it is possible to manually turn apport on post-release, but I can't
tell if that's what happened here. In any case, even if that is done,
we still don't want the gpu lockup script running.
This wouldn't be a big deal as it would just help people experiencing
GPU lockups report more bugs to us, however it appears that at least in
some cases this is getting triggered by the false GPU lockups, where the
user does not experience any lockups at all. In those cases, this hook
being triggered presents a continual annoyance to the users, and makes
Ubuntu look less robust than it is. So, the script needs quelled.
Since it's not our intention for this script to be invoked in the
release anyway, even if apport is enabled, I think the appropriate fix
is to disable the udev rule that triggers this script. That should
resolve this and a few other corner case problems that have cropped up.
