Package: reportbug Version: 7.1.7 Followup-For: Bug #842018 It is true that the .desktop file included in a default install of Debian is broken, however if you check #842018 you will see that installing packages python3-gi-cairo and gir1.2-vte-2.91 should fix it for you. Hopefully this workaround helps you.
