I have not found boot.log in the apport source code, but it is mentioned
two package hooks:
grep boot.log /usr/share/apport/ -r
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_xorg.py:
attach_file_if_exists(report, '/var/log/boot.log', 'BootLog')
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_xorg.py:
report['xserver.logfile'] = xlog.boot_logfile
/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_plymouth.py: attach_file(report,
'/var/log/boot.log', 'BootLog')
They use attach_file or attach_file_if_exists. They need to use
root_command_output instead.
