Package: reportbug-gtk Version: 7.5.3~deb10u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Reportbug (at least when using the GUI) is warning software is out-of-date even when it's not. For instance, even filing this report, I got a pop-up dialogue saying: ============= Your version (7.5.3~deb10u1) of reportbug appears to be out of date. The following newer releases(s) are available in the Debian archive: testing: 7.5.3 unstable: 7.5.3 Please try to verify if the bug you are about to report is already addressed by these releases. Do you still want to file a report ============= (While it's up, notice the missing question mark. Please fix that too.) As you can see, I HAVE the latest version. It does the same thing for the latest version of Firefox too where it warned that my version 68.2.0esr-1~deb10u1 is out-of-date and unstable has 68.2.0esr-1. It seems like it might be the "deb10u1" patch extensions causing the trouble in whatever comparison algorithm used. Anyway, this is an IMPORTANT bug, not just normal. It's literally discouraging users from sending feedback and thus adversely affects the whole project. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages reportbug-gtk depends on: ii gir1.2-gtk-3.0 3.24.5-1 ii gir1.2-vte-2.91 0.54.2-2 ii python3-gi 3.30.4-1 ii python3-gi-cairo 3.30.4-1 ii python3-gtkspellcheck 4.0.5-1 ii reportbug 7.5.3~deb10u1 reportbug-gtk recommends no packages. reportbug-gtk suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
