It probably should be slightly more forgiving, but it can't be too forgiving or it'll end up trying to parse the rest of the message with hard-to-interpret results. I'll think about ignoring blank pseudoheaders and probably end up implementing it.

RNG doesn't generate empty pseudo headers anymore. But the problem was not debbugs ignoring the empty Version:-line (which would be fine), but the whole rest after this line including the severity. I think it should be more robust against such cases. If there is a stop/quit/--/ etc line in the mail, it could try to process as much of the found pseudoheaders above this line as possible. This shouldn't be hard to implement and wouldn't hurt either. But anyway, this bug is fixed on my side, so do whatever you want with this hint :) Cheers, Bastian -- Bastian Venthur http://venthur.de Debian Developer venthur at debian org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Pseudoheaders are required to have some contents, so when debbugs saw "Version:" without an actual version, it stopped looking at them. That's a reportbug-ng bug, and the ultimate cause of this. I've no idea if we want to change debbugs to deal more nicely with empty pseudo-headers, but reportbug-ng definitely shouldn't be generating them.

I doubt this is a bug of reportbug-ng I think it should be a bug for debbugs, since it ignored the severity in this case. I'm CC'ing the debbugs-devels to see what they think. Dear debbugs-devels: Charles reported a bug as "whishlist" but the BTS seems to think it is of severity "normal" The control lines where: Package: bugs.debian.org Version: Severity: wishlist Is there a problem with empty Version:-lines?
