[SOLVED] Not an Official Install of Zorin

I know this has been asked before, because I asked it, I think. I am sorry about asking it again, but I did a search and went through all the pages and did not find it.

Question is, I have recently installed Zorin 9, I will get the warning "There has been a system Error, do you wish to report", or something to that effect, my memory isn't that good, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, I click "Yes Report", and it does it's gathering information thing, and then load Apport, which says "This is not an official installation of Zorin, please remove extra packages and try again". Why is it not an official install, I downloaded from the Zorin website. Is there a workaround so I can get Apport to report the system problems? Thanks for being so understanding about my double post.

Hi AD,

Apport ( System Reporter) is a right pain, the best thing to do is remove it with the following terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t) command:

Code:
sudo apt-get remove apport


Or you can use Synaptic to do the same!. :D
