[Bug 1969477] Re: apport-collect needs to be able to save logs to a file instead of requiring a launchpad connection

>If direct access to Launchpad is blocked how was a bug report filed in
the first place?

Clicking the "Report a Bug" link on any project's page in LP.  This is
done from a machine outside of the airgapped or restricted access lab
where the hardware sits.

Also, I should point out (which I mentioned originally) that one can,
and I'll also start suggesting they do this, use --save with ubuntu-bug
to create a bug report that can be submitted later from a different
machine.

I'm just asking to have apport-collect also feature this...

Perhaps the solution since, as you pointed out, apport needs to read the
bug to know which package to collect files for, is to require the
package as part of the commmand... e.g.

apport-collect --save=/path/to/filename --package=$PACKAGE $BUG_NUMBER

2022-04-19 Thread Brian Murray
If direct access to Launchpad is blocked how was a bug report filed in
the first place? apport-collect is designed to gather information from a
system about an existing bug report. Additionally, apport-collect looks
at the bug report in Launchpad to determine which package is affected
and to to determine which apport-package hook to run. Without the
connection Launchpad only general information about the system would be
gathered.

** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu)
   Status: New => Incomplete
