Package: reportbug Version: 6.4.4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, German umlauts, french accents and more cause this when configuring reportbug the first time. To reproduce move your ~/.reportbugrc aside, e.g. `mv .reportbugrc .reportbugrc_old`
#1 German umlauts root@debian7:~# 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 "/root/.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 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|?]? n What real name should be used for sending bug reports?
