apport/packaging.py: Added an abstract method run_package_upgrade that will be called to upgrade
the obsolete packages against which the user is trying to report a crash.

apport/packaging-apt-dpkg.py: Implemented run_package_upgrade for apt.

apport/ui.py: Instead of telling the user that he is running some obsolete packages,
he will now be given an option to upgrade those packages from apport itself.

apport-gtk: Don't crash if GTK cannot be initialized. This usually happens without a $DISPLAY or when the session is being shut down. Just print an error message. If there are pending crashes, they will be shown again the next time a session starts. (LP: #730569)

apport-gtk: Fix broken dialog heading if the name of the crashed program contains an & or other markup specific characters.

add LP ref for re-enabling SIGABRT crashes

Add support for a "DuplicateSignature" report fields. This allows package hooks to implement custom duplicate problem handling which doesn't need to be hardcoded in Apport itself. Update the launchpad backend to tag such bugs as "need-duplicate-check".

Disable the filtering on SIGABRT without assertion messages. Turns out that developers want these crash reports after all.

check that crash reports get a Stacktrace even for SIGABRT without assertion message

Add support for -w/--window option which will enable user to select a window as a target for filing a problem report. Thanks Abhinav Upadhyay for the patch! (LP: #357847)
