SYNOPSIS

rich-core-extract filename [outputdir]

rich-core-extract extracts the original core dump or kernel oopslog and additional metadata (syslog etc.) from a rich core file. If only filename is given, a new directory of the same name without the .rcore.lzo extension is created and rich core contents are extracted there.

If filename does not have a .rcore.lzo extension ( .rcore is also accepted as it was used by older versions), specify output directory in outputdir.

For safety, rich-core-extract always checks that outputdir is not an existing directory.

EXAMPLES

rich-core-extract ./browser-11-2260.rcore.lzo

Creates a new directory ./browser-11-2260 and extracts rich core contents as multiple files there. For example, the regular core dump can be found at ./browser-11-2260/coredump

EXIT STATUS

rich-core-extract exits with status 0 if no errors were encountered. On error, rich-core-extract exits with status 1 and prints an error message on stderr.
