Package: reportbug
Version: 3.19
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

When trying to file a bug on openssh-server 1:4.2p1-8, reportbug
display a message that is version is newer than the debian version.
reportbug queries http://packages.debian.org/openssh-server, and the
relevant part of that page is:

 * unstable (debian-installer): Secure shell server for the Debian installer
   1:4.2p1-8: alpha amd64 arm hppa hurd-i386 i386 ia64 mips powerpc s390 sparc
   1:4.2p1-7: kfreebsd-i386 mipsel

The bug is in class PackagesParser (checkversions.py), which searches
for the *word* i386 and also gets a match for the last line. With my patch
a space is expected in front of the arch name (this works with the
current form of the html page... reportbug is very dependent on the
form of that page anyhow).
