This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.28.1-0ubuntu3.1
---------------
apport (2.28.1-0ubuntu3.1) noble; urgency=medium
[ Chris Peterson ]
* d/package-hooks/subiquity.py: update information collection (LP: #2067775)
- Add information about snap update/refresh state
- Attach logs and change key names to align with the information
attached by subiquity's self-collection
- Attach hardware information
- Ensure bug reports are always private since there may be private
information in the logs
- Don't require sudo for logs collection
- Add journal logs
- Ensure snap revision is included in both deb and snap collection
style
- Handle version information when permission elevation fails.

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
I'm finding it impossible to retrace any crashes with the version of
apport packaged in noble or with upstream commit id
adfe3698731b69b0f19ca36ecca90d8e96001250.
The retracing process ends with the following lines:
Extracting downloaded debs...
tar: ./lib: Cannot create symlink to ‘usr/lib’: File exists
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
dpkg-deb: error: tar subprocess returned error exit status 2

I've tried cleaning the cache, /srv/vms/apport-retrace/Ubuntu 24.04/,
but the retracing process continues to fail. The crashes I'm trying to
retrace have been uploaded to Launchpad and still have the coredumps
attached but I'd be happy to subscribe an apport developer to them.
[ Test Plan ]
The fix for this bug adds four new system test cases. These system
test cases are run in the autopkgtest. Check that those four test
cases succeed on amd64 on autopkgtest.
[ Where problems could occur ]
The fix touches apport-retrace. This binary is not installed by
default, but is used by us to retrace users reports and by users to
retrace their own crashes. This fix might reveal new issues with
apport-retrace and it will hopefully help retracing more bugs on
Launchpad. This should lead to more bug reports.
