Package: reportbug
Version: 4.1
Reportbug crashes every time I try to use it. The latest session went
as follows:
jd...@not-working:~$ reportbug
Welcome to reportbug! Since it looks like this is the first time you have used
reportbug, we are configuring its behavior. These settings will be saved to the
file "/home/jdenn/.reportbugrc", which you will be free to edit further.
Please choose the default operating mode for reportbug.
1 novice Offer simple prompts, bypassing technical questions.
2 standard Offer more extensive prompts, including asking about things that a
moderately sophisticated user would be expected to know about
Debian.
3 advanced Like standard, but assumes you know a bit more about Debian,
including
"incoming".
4 expert Bypass most handholding measures and preliminary triage routines.
This
mode should not be used by people unfamiliar with Debian's policies
and operating procedures.
Select mode: [novice] 2
Please choose the default interface for reportbug.
1 gtk2 A graphical (GTK+) user interface
2 text A text-oriented console user interface
Select interface: 2
Will reportbug often have direct Internet access? (You should answer yes to this
question unless you know what you are doing and plan to check whether duplicate
reports have been filed via some other channel.) [Y|n|q|?]? Y
What real name should be used for sending bug reports?
[JpD]> Joe Dennigan
Which of your email addresses should be used when sending bug reports? (Note
that
this address will be visible in the bug tracking system, so you may want to use
a
webmail address or another address with good spam filtering capabilities.)
