NAME
       apport-unpack - extract the fields of a problem report to separate files

SYNOPSIS
       apport-unpack report target-directory

DESCRIPTION
       A  problem  report,  as	produced  by  apport is a single file with a set of key/value pairs in the RFC822 syntax. This tool disassembles a
       report such that the value of each entry is written into a separate file, with the key as file name. This is particularly useful for  large
       binary data like the core dump.

       report is either a path to an existing apport crash report, or '-' to read from stdin.

       The target-directory must either be nonexisting or empty.

AUTHOR
       apport and the accompanying tools are developed by Martin Pitt <martin.pitt@ubuntu.com>.
