This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.16-0ubuntu1
---------------
apport (2.16-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium
* New upstream release:
- Add a new method ProblemReport.extract_keys() which writes binary keys
(which can be very large) directly to files without loading them all
into memory first. Use that in apport-unpack. Thanks Louis Bouchard!
(LP: #1307413)
- launchpad backend: Work with Python 3, now that launchpadlib exists for
Python 3. (LP: #1153671)
- apport-bug, apport-gtk: Also check for $WAYLAND_SESSION, to use
apport-gtk instead of apport-cli under Wayland. Thanks Tim Lunn.
(LP: #1418766)
- apport-gtk: When running under Wayland, avoid Gdk/Wnck operation for
setting crash window modal to the PID of the crashed window; these only
work under X11.
- Don't install the test suite any more, to save 1 MB of installed space.
It can be run out of trunk easily enough, and distributions can install
it from tests/ if they desire.
- hookutils, attach_root_command_outputs(): Fix UnicodeDecodeError crash
for non-textual values. (LP: #1370259)
- ui.py: Only provide a UI to hooks if the crash db will accept the
report. This avoids asking questions if the report is merely sent to
whoopsie for Ubuntu stable releases. Thanks Brian Murrary.
(LP: #1084979)
- whoopsie-upload-all: Add package information to the report before
calling package hooks. Thanks Brian Murray.
- Fix check for available terminal when checking whether to display the
"Examine locally" button.
* Add general hook for detecting Wayland sessions and tagging them with
"wayland-session". Thanks Timm Lunn! (LP: #1418262)
* debian/tests/upstream-system: Copy tests from source tree, as
/usr/share/apport/testsuite/ does not exist any more.

Title:
apport-unpack requires too much main memory to run
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
when running apport-unpack on large apport reports (linux-image kernel
dumps is a good example), it requires an enormous amount of main
memory to run.
An example is a 1.3Gb apport report that runs for more than 24 hours
with more than 4Gb of RSS.
The command should requires less memory to extract those big reports.
