I have some more info on this, added 

        print repr(magic)
        print repr('\037\213')

into _read_gzip_header(self) in gzip.py from python and here's the
output of reportbug:

Checking for newer versions at packages.debian.org...
'\x1f\x8b'
'\x1f\x8b'
'\x1f\x8b'
'\x1f\x8b'
http://pdo.debian.net/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=reportbug
'<!'
'\x1f\x8b'

    def _read_gzip_header(self):
        magic = self.fileobj.read(2)
        print repr(magic)
        print repr('\037\213')

is the beginning of the function, just for reference what I'm printing.

My guess is: self.fileobj.read() already returns the unzipped content of
the file and thus this is failing. However I have no idea why, I first
thought maybe the python in $HOME/python2.4 which is in PATH before
/usr/bin would interfere, but even in a clean environment I have this
problem. Even a totally fresh user has it.
