Package: reportbug Version: 3.12 Severity: important Hi,
This refers to http://bugs.debian.org/309598 If reportbug is started without an ~/.reportbugrc file, an interactive prompt may appear concerning vi: You appear to be using the "vi" editor, which is not suited for new users. You probably want to change this setting by using "update-alternatives --config editor" as root. Do you want to continue? [y|N|q|?]? This occurs even when the command line option --template is used, which should be completely non-interactive. Unfortunately, the current behaviour breaks debian-el's `M-x debian-bug' Emacs command which calls reportbug like so: $ reportbug --template -T none -s none -S normal -b --list-cc=none -q reportbug Can the interactiveness be avoided when the --template switch is used? The bug severity reflects the impact on another package rather than on reportbug itself, so I'm not too sure about it. But it doesn't matter because you'll fix this shortly anyway, right? ;-) Thanks!
