Package: reportbug
Version: 7.9.0
Severity: important
Reportbug fails during the initial configuration when I use the default Y
answer (I press Enter) for direct Internet access. Console output during
execution:
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|?]?

This error makes it a bit awkward to report other bugs in Debian.
I installed the package today, so I don't know if this have worked in
earlier versions
