Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.10-1+b1
Severity: wishlist

Please consider removing the option to run reportbug from withing aptitude.

  - Reportbug can easily be run from the command line, so there's no real
    need for this option
  - Aptitude is most often run as root, and reportbug discourages being run
    as root. After then aborting reportbug you still have to run it
    manually from the command line.
  - The option to run reportbug can be triggered accidentally (#412830).
  - I have accidentally triggered reportbug many times. Only once have I
    considered filing a bug report from withing aptitude: Aptitude is not
    particularly suited to find the package a particular bug pertains to.
