Bug Description
[Impact]
Apport was modifed in bug 989698 to stop showing the information collection process if the crash database (launchpad) doesn't accept a type of report. Data would be collected in the background and whoopsie would just upload the crash. This led to a situation where whoopsie might upload the .crash file to daisy before the information collection was done. Subsequently, there are error reports missing valuable data like the package version and release of Ubuntu.
[Test Case]
[Regression Potential]
We do not appear to be getting many crash reports for the current development release, according to the API:
https:/
The DistroRelease field is definitely set to "Ubuntu 12.10", so this is likely not a problem of it showing up under "Ubuntu 12.10 (development release)" or "Ubuntu Quantal".

Would it be possible that if they have the same signature the crash report would be bucketed with the 12.04 version of it? So we are only seeing new crashes (ones that didn't occur in 12.04) in the above url.
