Package: reportbug Version: 6.4.4 Severity: normal From an interaction:
Please enter the name of the package: poppass-cgi Checking status database... This package doesn't appear to exist; continue? [y|N|?]? n But poppass-cgi exists. The problem seems to be that reportbug relies on the dpkg status database, but that does not contain information about packages that were never installed, which makes QA work (orphaning, removal requests) hard. Couldn't the data be obtained from elsewhere, i.e. through an APT query? -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: EDITOR="/usr/bin/vim" VISUAL="/usr/bin/vim" DEBEMAIL="madd...@debian.org" DEBFULLNAME="martin f. krafft" INTERFACE="text" ** /home/madduck/.reportbugrc: mode expert ui text bts debian submit mutt query-bts no-cc config-files compress verify check-available -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11-rc4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 0.9.11.1 ii python 2.7.5-4 ii python-reportbug 6.4.4 reportbug recommends no packages.
