Hey Pat! Can you please elaborate what the actual effect of this is? AFAIK apport needs the apt lists only to determine/validate the origin of a package (which we can/should work around on a system image indeed), but *not* to determine the Package:/Dependencies: fields. I. e. mapping files to packages and determining package versions should only require the dpkg database in /var/lib/dpkg/, *not* apt.
