Package: reportbug Version: 4.4 Severity: normal Hi,
reportbug blocks infinitely if it encounters unreadable directories (files?) during package verification. One example is the bugzilla3 (3.2.0.1-1) package which has some directories in /usr/share with permissions 0750, owner root:www-data (e.g. /usr/share/bugzilla3/lib) that I as normal user can't access and I had to use the --no-verify option to report that as bug #533394.
