Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I tried to report a bug on Debian Sid
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
1. Run "reportbug -u urwid"
2. Type "reportbug" as the package
3. Select "New bug"
4. Select "OK"
5. Type something in to the input field and select "OK"
6. Select "Normal" and "OK"
7. Select "OK"
* What was the outcome of this action?
reportbug crashes with:
Gathering additional data, this may take a while...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 2266, in <module>
main()
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1109, in main
return iface.user_interface()
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 2182, in user_interface
package, severity, mode, charset=charset, tags=tags)
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 181, in handle_editing
(message, changed) = ui.spawn_editor(message or dmessage, filename,
AttributeError: module 'reportbug.ui.urwid_ui' has no attribute 'spawn_editor'
* What outcome did you expect instead?
It shouldn't crash.
Another way how to crash reportbug:
1. Modify the file /etc/ssh/ssh_config
2. Run reportbug -u urwid
3. Type "openssh-client" as the package
4. Select "New bug"
5. Select "Display modified configuration files"
you'll get this crash:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 2266, in <module>
main()
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1109, in main
return iface.user_interface()
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1831, in user_interface
ui.system(PAGER + ' ' + ' '.join(changed))
AttributeError: module 'reportbug.ui.urwid_ui' has no attribute 'system'
Note - I'm reporting this bug from Debian Stretch, because reportbug on
Debian Sid is unuseable. But the bug happenes on Sid, reportbug works
correcly on Stretch.
