Package: reportbug Version: 3.18 Severity: normal Greetings (and happy holidays)!
I'm afraid to report that reportbug stymied my initial attempt to report bug #345393 against x-window-system-core by crashing upon discovering that some of its dependencies (though not quite enough, hence my report...) had developed alternatives: } Getting status for x-window-system-core... } x-window-system-core is a dependency package. Which of the following packages is } the bug in? } } 1 xserver-xorg the X.Org X server } 2 xlibmesa-dri Mesa 3D graphics library modules [X.Org] } 3 xlibmesa-gl Mesa 3D graphics library [X.Org] } Traceback (most recent call last): } File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1740, in ? } main() } File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1038, in main } 'Select one of these packages: ') } File "/usr/share/reportbug/reportbug_ui_text.py", line 284, in menu } starttext=('%*d %-*.*s ' % ( } File "/usr/share/reportbug/reportbug_ui_text.py", line 63, in indent_wrap_text } text = ' '.join(text.split()) } AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split' [I ended up reporting the bug from a machine with an older Packages file, with the help of the -V flag.] Could you please take a look?
