Bug Description
If a client has available in his repositories packages that don't respect the Debian packaging standards[1] the package-reporter runs approximately every 85 seconds. This causes frequent CPU spikes which makes the client almost non-usable.
Examples:
-a package named 'my_package' because it uses underscore in the name.
-a package with version 'my-1st-Test'. In this case the issue is the capital 'T' which is not allowed as only lowercase letters are accepted in the version naming.
Log example:
/var/log/
/var/log/
