Hello,
because automatic reporting failed ('report_uReport' exited with 1),
I have attempted to upload crash dir manually and failed as well.

First I have not read whole text and just did:

   cd /var/spool/abrt
   sudo tar cf 'aaa.tar.gz' Python3-2019-05-11-21\:14\:04-25765

and uploaded that. Page said "Wrong archive file name".

Then I realized that maybe I need to create tar without dir and use all
the tar options mentioned there:

   cd /var/spool/abrt/Python3-2019-05-11-21:14:04-25765
   sudo tar -pczf /tmp/aaa.tar.gz *

Same result. Then I noticed page says "into 'tar.gz' file" which is to
me unusual name, but I tried:

   cd /var/spool/abrt/Python3-2019-05-11-21:14:04-25765
   sudo tar -pczf /tmp/tar.gz *

Same result. Now I realized that click to "upload" link in "Problem
Reporting" took me to URL:

   
https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/dumpdirs/new/Python3-2019-05-11-21:14:04-25765.tar.gz

So maybe page expects that?

   cd /var/spool/abrt/Python3-2019-05-11-21:14:04-25765
   sudo tar -pczf /tmp/Python3-2019-05-11-21\:14\:04-25765.tar.gz *

That finally worked and I got "Dump dir archive already exists." so
looks like something before worked.

Could the page be made more fool-proof?

Maybe:

- mentioning in which directory to run the tar command
- menitioning expected name of the archive
- or ability to consume fine no matter what name it have
- maybe also showing note that file is already uploaded

Thank you in advance,
Jan
