Bug Description

Looking at:

https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/806582b6851d4ad50580ec648f98f910c5c50b1d

We can see the following Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/software-center/piston_generic_helper.py", line 54, in <module>
    from softwarecenter.utils import clear_token_from_ubuntu_sso_sync
ImportError: cannot import name clear_token_from_ubuntu_sso

Oddly the ImportError line is truncated. Looking at individual examples not all of them are truncated.

https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/b8ef968e-a2e7-11e2-bcec-2c768aafd08c - a full ImportError

comparing that example to one with a truncated line they both had the same version of apport so perhaps it is a daisy / errors issue.

Changed in errors:

I suspect this is a bug in apport or whoopsie. We should look for this crash in Launchpad and see if it's also truncated, which would point the finger at either apport or whoopsie/daisy.

I poked around in Launchpad too looking for this crash (searching for tags apport-crash and precise) and could not find it reported there either. I guess we should keep an eye out for other python-tracebacks that seem truncated and investigate further when we find one.

I checked my local cache of apport traceback files (~1018) and didn't find any that were obviously truncated like the example one here.
