Package: reportbug Version: 6.6.0 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? trying to use reportbug-gkt for filing a bug report concerning an other package (And I think you should give this package much, much more attention. Users of Debian who aren't skilled will never try agian to report a bug if the bug reporting utility does not work as it happened to be the case too many times within the last year. Yes the CL version can be used as a fall back. But it's not as easy as the gtk version. And although I am not a beginner I think twice before switching back from the gtk versions to the CL version as it involves editing the rc file manually. A beginner wouldn't even know how to switch back). * What was the outcome of this action? reportbug-gtk didn't finish gathering infos from my system. I then killed it, and instead of filing a bug report for I package I really need (dovecot-core) I am now sitting here caring about the functionality of the reportbug utility. -- Package-specific info: ** /home/mh/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "6.6.0" mode standard realname "Michael Hatzold" email "m.hatz...@web.de" no-cc header "X-Debbugs-CC: m.hatz...@web.de" smtphost reportbug.debian.org -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.17-3.towo-siduction-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 1.0.9.3 ii python 2.7.8-2 ii python-reportbug 6.6.0 pn python:any <none> reportbug recommends no packages.
