apport still uses the "beta" LP API

Here is an untested diff. It forces the use of the "1.0" API (default is still "beta" but as I've be told this is expected to be change for lucid) and replaces the "transitionTo..." calls with setting the attribute directly and calling lp_save() on the object.

Thanks! I talked to the LP guys today, and they will fix staging soon, so that the test suite will work again. Then this is much easier to test.

This is currently blocked by bug 551704.

OK, bug 551704 has an easy workaround.

trunk r1746

Setting to "High", because the beta API is going to be deprecated within lucid's timeframe.

This bug was fixed in the package apport - 1.13.2-0ubuntu1

apport (1.13.2-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * New upstream bug fix release:
    - packaging-apt-dpkg.py, _install_debug_kernel(): Do not crash on an
      outdated kernel, just return that it is outdated. (LP: #532923)
    - launchpad.py test suite: Add "Referer" HTTP header, now required by
      launchpad.
    - launchpad.py: Fix crash if configuration does not have an
      "escalated_tag" option.
    - launchpad.py: Port to launchpadlib 1.0 API, thanks Michael Bienia for
      the initial patch! (LP: #545009)

      categories so that these do not ever appear in menu editors.
      (LP: #449215)
    - launchpad.py: Some LP bugs have broken attachments (this is a bug in

      arguments, and stderr is not a valid fd. (LP: #467363)
    - hookutils.py: Factor out the DMI collection code from attach_hardware()
      into attach_dmi(), and call that in attach_alsa() as well. Thanks to
      Brad Figg for the patch! (LP: #552091)
    - apport/ui.py: Fix the help output if Apport is invoked under an
      alternative name (like apport-collect). (LP: #539427)

    (LP: #487700)
  * debian/control: Bump python-launchpadlib dependency, to ensure that we
    have a current version (LP: #407091), and the "1.0" protocol available.
  * data/package-hooks/source_linux.py: Drop _() i18n, it's not available in
    the hook and causes crashes. (LP: #538368)

  [ Leann Ogasawara ]
  * data/package-hooks/source_linux.py:
    - Clean up some of the wording in the information dialogs for the

      asked how frequently an issue occurs. (LP: #534638)
    - Autodetect if running an upstream kernel. (LP: #532932)
    - Attempt to categorize issue. Then add tag based on category.
