Package: reportbug
Version: 3.45
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hello. I have modified the configuration file /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
that was installed by the package dhcp3-client:
$ md5sum /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
1c128bc5590714d1688fb6944c7e4128 /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
$ dpkg -s dhcp3-client | grep /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
/etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf 6e3910d75cd5cde0042ecb6d48492ae9
However, if I try to run reportbug on the package, for example with
the command below, it doesn't ask whether to include this file in the
bug report, as the description of --no-config-files in the man page
suggests that it should (given that --no-config-files is actually not
specified on the command-line).
$ reportbug --no-check-available --no-query-bts --no-debconf -S normal \
-s test -T none --print dhcp3-client
I've attached a patch which seems to fix this issue. Though, I've not
thoroughly tested it: only with my installtion of the dhcp3-client
package mentioned above.
