Package: reportbug Version: 6.4.4+deb7u1 Severity: normal Running reportbug to file an ITP with WNPP causes it to fail unless it is run with --no-query-bts. If you do use --no-query-bts then the bugreport itself still contains the same error python traceback, but at least a message does get sent.
Attached is the log from running reportbug wnpp Here is the message resulting from running reportbug -d --no-query-bts wnpp (sent to myself with -d) ----------------------------- Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Wookey <woo...@debian.org> Querying Debian BTS for reports on wnpp (source)...
