Public bug reported:
We very often tell our hardware partners to "file a bug" when they
encounter issues. This requires them to run apport-collect to gather
and submit logs for the bug.
However, very often, the hardware that has the problem is in a lab that
has tight security restrictions and direct access to launchpad is
blocked. This makes it nearly impossible for them to gather any
requested logs, since apport-collect requires a direct line to
Launchpad.
apport-collect needs to adopt the --save feature of apport-bug/ubuntu-
bug to save the prescribed logs and system data in a tarball that can
then be attached to a bug after the fact.
